The lecture, "An Evidence-Based, Cost-Sensitive Infant Formula Algorithm for the Infant on Georgia's WIC," was presented by Dr. Jeffery Lewis in March 2011.
The presentation was developed to educate physicians on the new WIC Algorithm which was created to assist physicians in prescribing the best formula for their WIC patients.
At the completion of this session, the participant will be able to:
- Identify the most cost effective method of feeding a generally healthy infant.
- Distinguish the cost difference between hydrolyzed formulas and "routine" cow's milk based infant formulas.
- Address appropriate infant formula utilization for the generally healthy infant and appropriate reasons/methods to change formulas should they encounter common conditions.
This activity is supported, in part, by an educational grant from the Georgia Division of Public Health.
