My son at 10 had advanced bone age of 12. Now he is 12 and his bones say 14.5 he is still shorter than his whole class,sports, he is teased. He has been on growth hormone for 6 month and he is growing, however, my medical wont cover it because they think he has normal growth. We have been in appeals for over 6 months. Does anyone have info that would be helpful to write in this appeal letter? Advanced bone age for him tells his body that he is almost done growing and we are running out of time. He is already in level 5 puberty, and his feet are mens 9, big hands, but very short. He is only 4' 9". There are 4th graders taller than he is. My daughter is 6 and she is almost there. HELP! I hate insurance companies. I need facts that will help me win.
