The Arizona WIC Special Formula Authorization Form is a critical document designed to facilitate access to special formula and medical foods for children, women, and healthy infants who are part of the Women, Infants, and Children (WIC) program. The form requires detailed information to be filled out in sections 1-7, ensuring a comprehensive assessment of the client's needs to prevent any delays in the issuance of the required nutritional products. It lists specific formulas, including WIC contract formulas marked with an asterisk, for different conditions such as fussiness, gas, or digestive issues, and asks for the quantity of formula needed per day. Furthermore, it asks for a diagnosis that justifies the need for a special formula or medical food, highlighting the importance of a specific medical diagnosis. Dietary restrictions related to the diagnosis are also addressed, indicating which WIC-provided foods are not suitable for the client. The form specifies the duration for which the special formula is requested, and it must be completed and signed by a healthcare provider, indicating the necessity of professional input. It also outlines a process for approval by a local nutritionist or state authority, ensuring that the request is evaluated thoroughly. This form thus plays a pivotal role in making sure that individuals under the WIC program receive the specialized nutritional support they need, based on their unique health requirements.
