Is EleCare WIC approved?

EleCare barcodes we found on state WIC approved product lists, and which states list each one.

On 13 of 14 state lists · 17 productsNot on the Washington list. Each state lists its own flavors and sizes.
Formula depends on your state's contract. State WIC agencies must hold down formula costs, usually with a single-supplier rebate contract (federal rule 7 CFR 246.16a), so the formula brand on one state's list may not be on the next state's, and it can change when a contract is rebid. Non-contract brands, specialty ("exempt") formulas and WIC-eligible nutritionals are issued only with medical documentation (7 CFR 246.10(d)). Your WIC clinic issues the exact formula, form and can size; check with them before buying. Formula on each list →

Questions

Is EleCare WIC approved in every state?

No single answer: EleCare items are on 13 of the 14 lists we compare and on none of the lists for Washington (as of each list's date). States pick their own brands and sizes, so check the product table for your state's column.

Which EleCare products are on the most lists?

EleCare for Infants Powdered Formula 14.1oz (13 of 14); EleCare Jr. Unflavored Powder 14.1oz (9 of 14); EleCare Jr. Vanilla Powder 14.1oz (9 of 14).

My state is Washington. Can I still buy EleCare?

A product that is not on your state's list will usually be declined at the register, but lists change: New York's list itself says "There may be eligible products that are not on this list." Look for the WIC shelf tag, scan it in your state's WIC shopping app, or ask your WIC clinic.

Why does one EleCare size work and another not?

WIC lists authorize exact barcodes. The same infant formula in a different size, pack or flavor has a different UPC, and many states allow only certain container sizes. Compare the UPC on your package with the UPC shown here.
