State of Alaska WIC Program
Directions:
Please complete the Enteral Nutrition Prescription Request (ENPR) form so that WIC can provide a Non Contract formula for your
patient. This form can be provided to the WIC client or faxed to the WIC office. If measurements were completed during the medical exam please
document the most current information. The prescription must be completed by a Health Care Provider eligible to write prescriptions in Alaska.
Please include your Alaska License number or Medicaid Provider number. If the ENPR form is approved by the Local Agency Registered Dietitian,
WIC will provide the Non Contract formula. If your client is currently participating in the State of Alaska Medicaid or Denali Kid Care program, WIC
will apply to Medicaid for the Non Contract Formula. The Local Agency will assist the WIC family in the application process. If Medicaid approves
the prescription, the formula will be shipped directly to your patient’s home. This process may take more than a month for completion, during which
time WIC will provide the Non Contract formula for your patient.
Important:
Medical documentation is federally required in order to issue special formula and some supplemental food to WIC women, infants and
children who have qualifying condition(s) that require the use of the special formulas listed below. The program does NOT authorize issuance of
therapeutic formulas for:
1). Non specific symptoms such as intolerance, fussiness, gas, spitting up, constipation or colic OR
2). Enhancing nutrient intake or managing body weight without an underlying medical condition.
WIC is a supplemental Food Program. Infants who are not breastfed may require more formula than WIC is able to provide.
