Abstract
The primary aim of the project was to identify whether financial assistance in the form of product vouchers for non-dairy (later expanded to include dairy) or commercially available thickeners impacts the time from initial recommendation to identification of a tolerated product. A secondary aim included identifying whether financial assistance in the form of product vouchers for non-dairy (later expanded to include dairy) beverages or commercially available thickeners impacts insurance coverage.
