VUMC was investigated by the Tennessee Attorney General’s Office in 2023 amid accusations that a VUMC doctor was handling medical billing codes to evade insurance coverage limitations for Transgender treatments. The investigation followed a video posted in 2022, which allegedly showed a VUMC doctor promoting transgender surgeries for minors such as “great money creators” and tells anyone with a religious objection to provide them should give up.

“As a beneficiary of federal funds, VUMC has an answer to align with the president’s executive orders and focus on the investigation that saves lives instead of awakening Dei initiatives. Instead of covering the efforts of Vumc, he urges the initiative of Pounty cough responsibility to assign dollars of the taxpayers and immediately ceases all initiatives of initiations.”
