Medically Tailored Groceries Standard Boosts Food is Medicine

Feeding America and the Academy of Nutrition and Dietetics have introduced a new standard for medically tailored groceries to help bridge the gap between the healthcare and hunger-relief sectors. This initiative aims to provide a consistent framework for prescribing healthy food to patients with chronic, diet-related conditions, facilitating more effective collaboration on Food is Medicine interventions.
