O RLY?You're absolutely right about how unnecessary surgeries are no longer touched in court. I hope someone brings this up during the inevitable GoFundMe his welfare polycule will start.
That's just from tabloids in the last couple months. Plastic surgeons are sued all the time because their clients are the sort of people who are pretty litigious. Also they're often quacks.
They're held to the same professional standards as any other medical professional and there are whole boutique firms that do nothing but sue plastic surgeons.
More to the point, though, SRS is treated as an actual medical procedure, not a cosmetic procedure. Medicaid doesn't pay for cosmetic procedures, but it does pay for SRS.
