Does Health Insurance Cover HGH? 
Yes , but only in specific circumstances that meet very clear criteria for medical necessity . The most common example of when HGH treatment may be approved by your health insurance carrier is in the case of children diagnosed with a HGH deficiency or conditions such as Turner Syndrome or Noonan Syndrome . There can be other diagnoses that will qualify an adult for HGH treatment but it is not a routine treatment for the general population . There is a growing medical industry advertising Human Growth Hormone injections as a way for people , especially persons over 50 , to `` regain their youthful vigor and stamina '' . This may be true but it is not addressing a specific medical problem and is viewed as more of a cosmetic treatment . If this is why an insured person is seeking coverage for HGH by their health insurance carrier they should expect that request for coverage to be declined and be prepared to pay for this treatment out of their own pocket .
