Anna Lange’s attorneys said that a healthcare plan that included transition-related care would have only cost Houston County about $10,000 per year, adding about 0.1% to the cost of all claims. Instead, the county spent nearly three times its annual physical and mental health budget to fight Lange in federal court.
