#CalFIMC is excited to announce Michelle Kuppich as its new director. Former director, Ann Thrupp, steps down to pursue a research project in Costa Rica. Read the official press release here: news.yahoo.com/california-foo…
@CalFIMC thanks @CVSHealth for the generous contribution of $100,000 to our work to provide healthy meals to people who are in critical need of support as a result of #COVID19!
We are proud to be part of this new research w/ partners @CCA_Mass , @MassDPH & @AARPCares showing 16% reduction in #healthcare costs for patients receiving medically tailored meals, published in @Health_Affairs #FoodistheFoundation tinyurl.com/sixteenpercent #FoodisMedicine
49% fewer inpatient admissions and a 16% reduction in expenditures! Thank you @communityserv and Dr. Seth Berkowitz @UNC_SOM for continuing to build the body of research demonstrating the value of medically tailored meals. #foodasmedicine #calfimc jamanetwork.com/journals/jamai…
Thanks to all of the participants who joined us at our first annual Symposium. It is with shared commitments that the Medi-Cal Medically Tailored Meals Pilot Program will be successful! #FoodIsMedicine #CalFIMC #MoreThanJustFood calfimc.org/leaders-network
The first annual statewide "Building an Ecosystem of Health Symposium" with healthcare and medical nutrition organizations was a success! Thanks to @CalFIMC and our partner agencies @ProjectOpenHand @ProjAngelFood @MamasKitchenSD @CeresCommunity @HealthTrust. #FoodIsMedicine
Check it out! Learn a little bit about California's Medi-Cal Medically Tailored Meals Pilot Program. A systems change opportunity. #FoodIsMedicine #MoreThanJustFood #California #healthcare Link: calfimc.org/s/Medi-Cal-MTM…
We look forward to hosting our first annual statewide "Building an Ecosystem of Health Symposium." Healthcare and medical nutrition organizations will be engaged in conversations aimed at supporting the Medi-Cal Medically Tailored Meals Pilot Program. #FoodIsMedicine #Leadership
As we kick off 2018, we are renewing our commitment to making medically tailored meals a benefit covered by Medi-Cal! In 2016, at least 5 of the leading causes of death in the US were connected to an unhealthy diet. Nutrition should be a right for all, not a privilege for a few!
"60% of deaths in the US are related to poor diets; we are simply eating ourselves sick." Take a healthy snack break & listen to @CeresCathryn speak to the staggering benefits of nutritious food & why policy change is key to improving population health! bit.ly/2QvQuqD
@CalFIMC leaders from across CA gathered today at @ProjectOpenHand to discuss the statewide Medically Tailored Meals Pilot Program. Their ultimate, collective goal? A healthy California for the sick and vulnerable through nutrition. Helping those with #CHF is only the beginning!
Looking forward to the event recordings post-symposium!
#FNCE2018 and @ProjectOpenHand this week in D.C. demonstrating outcomes of our RDN based medical nutrition intervention @CalFIMC @FIMCoalition
Thank you @SenKamalaHarris and staff for taking time out of your busy schedules to learn about the significant, positive impact of @CalFIMC medically tailored meals and nutrition therapy! #foodismedicine
@CalFIMC and @ProjectOpenHand heading to D.C. to meet with @CMSGov @SenFeinstein @KamalaHarris @NancyPelosi and @FIMCoalition to discuss California’s innovative medical nutrition model and the reduction of healthcare costs.
@ProjectOpenHand @CalFIMC excited to join @RichardAyoub @MamasKitchenSD and @ProjAngelFood in meetings with @SenFeinstein moving #FoodisMedicine forward.
