Well, I have heard that here in the UK, laser hair removal has been considered under the National Health System in severe cases when it was causing a lot of distress to the patient. I think there was even a cyster who got hair removal for free on the NHS. If our cash-strapped NHS, which does not cover cosmetic procedures in general, can consider it even in rare cases, I don't think that all hope is lost. I understand that most insurance companies would refuse to cover it, but maybe in future there will be more awareness of the distress of treating the symptoms of PCOS?
