The goal of offering medically tailored meals following discharge from an institutional setting (i.e. hospital, skilled nursing facility, etc.) is to provide healthy meals that promote continued healing, thereby reducing the likelihood of re-admission. For members who have a chronic condition, the goal of the medically tailored meals program is to help members build their understanding of healthy eating by choosing and eating healthy meal options while working with a nutrition coach to expand their skills and adopt practices to keep themselves healthy.
