    Subject: Recombinant Human Growth Hormone Original Effective Date: 7/5/2007 (somatropin)_ADULT Growth Hormone Deficiency ° GHD ° HIV/AIDS-associated wasting and cachexia ° Short Bowel Syndrome (SBS) Policy Number: Revision Date(s): 4/28/2010, 4/27/2011, MCP-004-D 3/14/2017 Review Dates: 4/28/2010, 4/27/2011, 3/14/2017, 7/10/2018 DISCLAIMER This Molina Clinical Policy (MCP) is intended to facilitate the Utilization Management process. It expresses Molina's determination as to whether certain services or supplies are medically necessary, experimental, investigational, or cosmetic for purposes of determining appropriateness of payment. The conclusion that a particular service or supply is medically necessary does not constitute a representation or warranty that this service or supply is covered (i.e., will be paid for by Molina) for a particular member. The member's benefit plan determines coverage. Each benefit plan defines which services are covered, which are excluded, and which are subject to dollar caps or other limits. Members and their providers will need to consult the member's benefit plan to determine if there are any exclusion(s) or other benefit limitations applicable to this service or supply. If there is a discrepancy between this policy and a member's plan of benefits, the benefits plan will govern. In addition, coverage may be mandated by applicable legal requirements of a State, the Federal government or CMS for Medicare and Medicaid members. CMS's Coverage Database can be found on the CMS website. The coverage directive(s) and criteria from an existing National Coverage Determination (NCD) or Local Coverage Determination (LCD) will supersede the contents of this MCP document and provide the directive for all Medicare members.

    Policy: 95015 Initial Effective Date: 06/22/1995 HCPCS J2170, J2940, J2941 and Q0515 Code(s): Annual Review Date: 06/17/2021 SUBJECT: Growth Stimulating Drugs Last Revised Date: 07/15/2021 - Genotropin(somatropin injection) - Humatrope (somatropin injection) - Increlex (mecasermin) - Norditropin® (somatropin injection) - Nutropin AQ (somatropin injection) - Omnitrope® (somatropin injection) - Saizen® (somatropin injection) - Serostim (somatropin injection) - Zomacton™ (somatropin injection) - Zorbtive (somatropin injection) - Sogroya(somapacitan injection) Prior approval is required for some or all procedure codes listed in this Corporate Drug Policy. Definition: Exogenous growth hormone (recombinant human, rhGH) is a polypeptide hormone with metabolic effects similar to endogenous human growth hormone (GH). Produced in the pituitary gland, endogenous growth hormone activates production of insulin-like growth factor-1 (IGF-1) and other peptides that: modulate lipid, carbohydrate and protein metabolism; and stimulate development of bone, cartilage, skeletal muscle and gonadal tissue, leading to longitudinal growth. Inadequate secretion or impairment of growth hormone activity during childhood and adolescence may result in short stature, growth hormone deficiency with growth failure and other medical conditions. Exogenous growth hormone products approved by the U.S. Food and Drug Administration include somatropin (Humatrope®, Nutropin®, Serostim®, Saizen®, Norditropin®, Genotropin®, Zorbtive®, Omnitrope®, ZomactonTM).

    Cigna National Formulary Coverage Policy Prior Authorization Growth Disorders - Growth hormone [somatropin] Table of Contents Product Identifer(s) National Formulary Medical Necessity ................ 1 12988 Conditions Not Covered....................................... 8 Background ........................................................ 10 References ........................................................ 14 Revision History ................................................. 16 INSTRUCTIONS FOR USE The following Coverage Policy applies to health benefit plans administered by Cigna Companies. Certain Cigna Companies and/or lines of business only provide utilization review services to clients and do not make coverage determinations. References to standard benefit plan language and coverage determinations do not apply to those clients. Coverage Policies are intended to provide guidance in interpreting certain standard benefit plans administered by Cigna Companies. Please note, the terms of a customer’s particular benefit plan document [Group Service Agreement, Evidence of Coverage, Certificate of Coverage, Summary Plan Description (SPD) or similar plan document] may differ significantly from the standard benefit plans upon which these Coverage Policies are based. For example, a customer’s benefit plan document may contain a specific exclusion related to a topic addressed in a Coverage Policy. In the event of a conflict, a customer’s benefit plan document always supersedes the information in the Coverage Policies. In the absence of a controlling federal or state coverage mandate, benefits are ultimately determined by the terms of the applicable benefit plan document. Coverage determinations in each specific instance require consideration of 1) the terms of the applicable benefit plan document in effect on the date of service; 2) any applicable laws/regulations; 3) any relevant collateral source materials including Coverage Policies and; 4) the specific facts of the particular situation.
