Growth Hormones covered by Medical Insurance?

Hi Ladies,

I am returning to Dubai in a few weeks and on this occasion we will be responsible for purchasing our own medical insurance (previously provided by DHs Company).

I am researching various policies and providers (and crying at the cost of it!) but cannot find a medical insurance provider who will cover Growth Hormone Treatment. It seems to be a general exclusion under most policies. My DS is on them and if we cannot get the cost (or at least some) of his medication covered then financially we will really, really struggle.

Has anyone been in a similar situation and can offer any advice?

TIA

I'm unsure about growth hormones in particular but my understanding is that no pre exisiting conditions are covered under medical insurance.
