North Carolina Doesn't Have to Build Its Food is Medicine Infrastructure From Scratch.
Reinvestment Partners has developed the technology and operational infrastructure to support a coordinated, scalable Food is Medicine system across North Carolina. We're ready to serve as a statewide and regional implementation partner, expanding and tailoring services to meet the state's needs.
North Carolina is making important investments in Food is Medicine. The next step is turning those investments into a coordinated, sustainable system that can serve communities across the state.
Through its Eat Well Rx program, Reinvestment Partners has already developed the technology and operational capacity to administer benefits, connect healthcare and community partners, facilitate participant access and support, and provide consistent reporting and evaluation. This existing infrastructure can be adapted to different programs, populations, and delivery models, allowing North Carolina to expand Food is Medicine services efficiently and at scale.
Peter Skillern, CEO of Reinvestment Partners, explains how Eat Well Rx's existing infrastructure can help North Carolina expand and coordinate Food is Medicine services statewide.
