Important Information on Growth Hormone Coverage for Idiopathic Short Stature
Effective 5/3/2012, NYS Medicaid will no longer cover Growth Hormone (GH) for patients with a diagnosis of Idiopathic Short Stature (ISS).
The Medicaid Redesign Team (MRT) Basic Benefit Review Work Group Phase II recommendations included the elimination of coverage of GH for treatment of ISS. The MRT work group determined that coverage for ISS is not medically necessary but cosmetic in purpose and does not treat a medical condition defined by growth hormone deficiency. For additional information please visit the MRT Website: http://www.health.ny.gov/health_care/medicaid/redesign/
