Food Is Medicine

Medically tailored groceries.

Fresh, dietitian-reviewed groceries — built around a chronic condition and hand-delivered to the door. Chef-planned, clinically guided, and covered by your health plan.

The Basics

What are medically tailored groceries?

Medically tailored groceries are fresh, whole-food groceries selected for a person's specific medical condition — not a generic diet box. Each order is chef-planned, reviewed by a Registered Dietitian, and built to support the way a chronic condition responds to food. They are a core part of the "Food Is Medicine" model and are increasingly covered by health plans as a clinical benefit.

Unlike a meal kit, medically tailored groceries are tied to your care. FareRx reads the condition you're managing, builds a recurring grocery plan around it, and pairs it with nutrition counseling — so the food on your counter and the plan in your chart finally agree.

How It Works

From eligibility to your doorstep.

1. Check eligibility

A two-minute check confirms whether your health plan covers medically tailored groceries. Most members pay nothing — the benefit is billed through your plan.

2. Get matched to a plan

A Registered Dietitian reviews your condition and builds a recurring grocery plan around it — balanced for your labs, your meds, and your routine.

3. Fresh groceries, delivered

Locally sourced, chef-planned groceries are hand-delivered to your door on a recurring schedule — with weekly recipes you can actually cook.

4. Ongoing nutrition care

Your care doesn't stop at the doorstep. Covered nutrition counseling keeps the plan working as your health changes.
