Those aren't emergencies and it would come up in any prior appointment or while making the appointment. It may be a bureaucratic issue if insurance doesn't want to pay for a (diagnostic) procedure that's not in accordance with the gender on record. But that's something fixable with insurance policies becoming more inclusive and not something that would lead to worse health outcomes for the patient.
