Support the Medical Nutrition Equity Act

The Medical Nutrition Equity Act would require coverage of specialized formulas, vitamins, individual amino acids, or other medically necessary foods under Medicaid, the Children’s Health Insurance Program, Medicare, the Federal Employee Health Benefit Program, and private insurance for patients with specific gastrointestinal and inherited metabolic diseases and disorders.  It is narrowly drafted to focus on individuals for whom medically necessary nutrition is the treatment for their diseases.

With just a few clicks, we have made it easy to send an email to your US Congressperson and our US Senators. Feel free to add a personal touch to the email and share your family's story about why this bill is important to you but, if you don't have time, the email is ready to go without you doing anything to it.

Thanks for taking the time to help protect medically fragile kids and their families!
