Position Statement: Transgender Voice

Following initial drafting and editing by members of the Academy’s Voice Committee, and input from the Physician Payment Policy (3P) Workgroup, the AAO-HNS Executive Committee approved a new Academy Position Statement, “Transgender Voice,” on May 14. As outlined, the Position Statement addresses the unique needs of transgender and gender-diverse individuals seeking gender-affirming care in otolaryngology, specifically gender-affirming voice care.
