Why Do We Need This Law?

EVERYONE NEEDS TO EAT!! These formulas are a standard of care for the ‘sickest of the sick’. This is what doctors prescribe when there are no other treatment options left. An elemental formula diet has been shown to be 98% effective in treating EGID symptoms when required.

To quote Madeleine’s Law in Georgia “…the poorest of the poor have access to the formulas. The rich can easily afford the expense. In contrast, the working and middle class citizens of this state are struggling to pay for both health care-related expenses and the cost of these medically necessary formulas.”
