Webinar: Understanding Medical Nutrition and Insurance Coverage Challenges
Join NORD on Wednesday, Aug. 19, from 1 to 2 p.m. ET for a webinar focused on medical nutrition. Hosted by the NORD® Rare Action Network®, this webinar will explore medical foods and formulas, related insurance coverage challenges, and how NORD is advocating for improvements.
Medical nutrition is one of the 9 critical policy areas assessed on NORD’s State Report Card®. With a “C” for a nationwide overall grade and not a single state with an “A” grade, there is a lot of room for improvement to ensure rare disease patients receive comprehensive medical nutrition coverage for any condition where medical nutrition is a medically necessary component of effective treatment.
Our speakers will help you understand:
The meaning of “medically necessary nutrition products”
Medical nutrition coverage challenges that impact the rare disease community
How we evaluate medical nutrition coverage on our state report card
