The way  we did it when I was at a hospital with a NICU is that Food
Service purchased  it since they were ordering all patient food.  There was no
extra charge  for the patient.

That's wonderful that you all will be using donor  milk.  We had such good
luck with it
`~ Ginger,

I notice your tense is the past tense. Did something change or stop, or do
you simply no longer work there or something? Just wondering. Thanks! It's
an  interesting thread since I assume that patients are not charged extra
for food  in the hospital but it must be included somehow. Also, though, human
milk is  more than food, and as sort of a medicinal product as well  or
even moreso  actually), I wonder if meds are charged specifically, whereas
maybe food isn't?  Dunno since I don't work in a hospital. Just thinking...

Peace,
Judy
