SUBJECT: Illinois WIC Vendor Notice 22-12 - Temporary Additions to Formulas - Enfamil NeuroPro Infant 36.4 oz

DATE: September 8, 2022

Due to recent availability, an additional size of Enfamil NeuroPro Infant has been added to the list of temporary formula options available for purchase with WIC benefits. A complete listing of all authorized temporary options is attached.

For cardholders to successfully buy these new container sizes and types of formula with their WIC card, stores must ensure their WIC Point of Sale (POS) register system has the most current version of the APL. The APL is a regularly updated electronic file that includes all the WIC-authorized foods for Illinois.

Stores should do the following immediately to ensure their POS has downloaded the most current APL:

• Stores with Integrated POS Cash Register Systems should ask their corporate office, IT Department, or POS Equipment Provider to verify that they have the most current APL file.
• Stores with WIC Stand-Beside POS terminals must leave their POS terminals powered on overnight to receive the APL file automatically.

See the attached Temporary Additions to Contract Formulas Flyer (pdf) for a full list of all formulas that have been temporarily added to the Illinois WIC APL.
