WIC Formula List

Enfamil PREMIUM Infant and Enfamil ProSobee Soy are WIC's standard infant formulas.

WIC also provides special and metabolic formulas for participants with special medical needs. A completed Request for Special Formula and Food Form  requesting a special or metabolic formula with a nutrition-related ICD code must be provided outlining the patient's qualifying medical condition(s) warranting need prior to issuance.

MassHealth is the payer of first choice for special medical formulas for WIC participants who are MassHealth members. While waiting for MassHealth approval, participants will receive one month of checks for the prescribed formula from WIC (after the medical provider has completed the Request for Special Formula and Food form). WIC staff can guide WIC participants and medical providers through the process of receiving special or prescription formulas through MassHealth insurance. (Reference 'For Healthcare Providers>What if my patient needs special formula?' at www.mass.gov/wic). MassHealth members requiring Enfamil Gentlease and Enfamil A.R. will receive these formulas through WIC without needing to pursue prior authorization from MassHealth. A Request for Special Formula and Food form is required for Enfamil A.R. before issuance will be approved. 

Note: For Type Available, P = Powder, C = Concentrate and R = Ready-to-Use (RTU) or Ready-to-Feed (RTF).  WIC does not permit the issuance of RTU or RTF formulas when more than one type of a formula is available (i.e., if available in Powder or Concentrate) unless there are concerns regarding safe preparation of the formula.
