Starbucks has a reputation for championing liberal causes, like vocally supporting same-sex marriage and hiring refugees. That also extends to transgender rights. Its health insurance has covered gender reassignment surgery since 2012 and a wider array of gender-affirming procedures, like hair transplants or breast reductions, since 2018.
As of mid-March, 154 anti-trans bills have been introduced in state legislatures, seeking to limit access to health care, sports, bathrooms and education,Employees enrolled in Starbucks' insurance plan and seeking access to abortion or gender-affirming procedures will be eligible for reimbursement of travel costs if those services aren't available within 100 miles of their home. The benefit will also extend to any dependents enrolled in Starbucks health care.
A representative for Starbucks said the company is still working on additional details, such as when the benefit kicks in. The company has 240,000 U.S. employees.

Starbucks Do they cover travel expenses for other essential medical procedures?

Starbucks What?
I will miss Starbucks
Instead of companies paying for childcare and help working moms by providing care facilities in their place of work, the company would rather you kill your child so that you don’t get distracted from working for them. The us is heartless!
Hope they will do the same when any of their other employees have cancer. cheapvirtuesignal
