    Reimbursement and Support

    The Supplemental Nutrition Assistance Program (SNAP) and the Special Supplemental Nutrition Program for Women, Infants and Children (WIC®) are government-sponsored programs designed to assist qualifying families with nutritional needs. Contact your community health department to find out which baby formulas are covered by WIC Program in your state. Based on medical need, certain specialty formulas and medical foods may be covered if the proper medical documentation is available. Talk to your baby’s doctor for more information.
