The following letters are included as part of the FOLX membership:
-
Name change letters
-
Medical letters to get insurance approval.
-
Updating sex/gender on IDs letter (drivers license, birth certificate, insurance, etc.)
To request a name change, insurance, or ID update letter, submit a request in the Help Center (Click Submit a request in the upper right hand corner).
At this time, a letter from a mental health professional is only available to members in California, Colorado, and Florida. In those states, providing a letter for gender affirming procedures is up to the discretion of our therapists. If you live in one of those states, you can schedule a visit with one of our therapists. If you do not live in one of the states listed above, you can submit a request in the Help Center for a referral to an affirming provider.
Please note: a therapist's role in letter writing is to evaluate and attest to documenting a member's eligibility and readiness for medical treatment. Because each person is unique, one of our therapists may need to meet with you more than one time to gather enough information to make this assessment. Your therapist will communicate this with you directly.
