This memorandum is intended to provide clarification on the applicability of two DHHS final regulations to the WIC program. These regulations include requirements for: (1) the establishment of standard formats for certain administrative and financial transactions, and (2) the privacy of individually identifiable health information.
This final rule delays from Feb. 27, 2002 until Oct. 1, 2002 the implementation date of the final rule entitled Special Supplemental Nutrition Program for Women, Infants and Children: Food Delivery Systems, which was published in the Federal Register on Dec. 29, 2000, 65 FR 83248, and became effective on April 28, 2001.
The purpose of this policy memorandum is to advise that the Medicaid Program will be the primary payor for WIC-eligible exempt infant formulas and medical foods issued to WIC participants who are also Medicaid beneficiaries.
This proposed rule would delay the implementation date of the final rule entitled Special Supplemental Nutrition Program for Women, Infants and Children: Food Delivery Systems, published in the Federal Register on Dec. 29, 2000, 65 FR 83248, which became effective on April 28, 2001 and has an implementation date of Feb. 27, 2002.
This rule finalizes the interim provisions addressing the use of products or dishes containing more than 30 parts fully hydrated vegetable protein to less than 70 parts beef, pork, poultry or seafood in the National School Lunch Program and the School Breakfast Program.
This notice announces the value of donated foods or, where applicable, cash in lieu thereof, to be provided in the 2002 school year for each lunch served by schools participating in the National School Lunch Program or by commodity only schools and for each lunch and supper served by institutions participating in the Child and Adult Care Food Program.
These income eligibility guidelines are to be used in conjunction with the WIC regulations.
This Notice announces the annual adjustments to: (1) The "national average payments,'' the amount of money the federal government provides states for lunches, afterschool snacks and breakfasts served to children participating in the National School Lunch and School Breakfast Programs; (2) the "maximum reimbursement rates,'' the maximum per lunch rate from federal funds that a state can provide a school food authority for lunches served to children participating in the National School Lunch Program; and (3) the rate of reimbursement for a half-pint of milk served to non-needy children in a school or institution which participates in the Special Milk Program for Children.
This notice corrects Title 7 of the Code of Federal Regulations, parts 210 to 299.
This notice announces the Food and Nutrition Service's intent to continue a demonstration project to test program changes designed to improve the state processing of donated foods by allowing the substitution of donated beef and pork supplied by the Department of Agriculture with commercial beef and pork.
