On the Medical Request for Formula/Food, if a doctor checks that a trial with contract formula is contraindicated or that they do not want to trial for a year, can we approve that?
Response: A medical reason is to be provided when refusing a trial. In most cases, you would reassess at least once every three months. Depending on the medical reason given and the infant’s medical condition, you might need to contact the health care provider to see if anything has changed after the initial trial waiver.
