Medically Tailored Meals

The Power of Food as Medicine

Medically Tailored Meals (1)

What is a medically tailored meal?

Medically tailored meals are delivered to individuals living with severe, complex and/or chronic illnesses through a referral from a medical professional or healthcare plan. Our medically tailored meals are tailored to our neighbors' medical needs by our team of Registered Dietitian Nutritionists (RDNs) in an effort to improve health outcomes, lower cost of care, and increase patient satisfaction. 

At Open Hand and GMM, we are committed to ongoing excellence in our service delivery and are proudly accredited by the Food is Medicine Coalition (FIMC). This accreditation shows that we:

  • Conduct regular assessment of our clients’ nutritional needs
  • Customize every meal to align with specific medical conditions
  • Adhere to food safety protocols, HIPAA protections, and clinical documentation standards
  • Enact ongoing quality improvement measures 
  • Integrate volunteer support 
  • Abide by a client-centered model rooted in dignity and respect  

At Open Hand, our medically tailored meals are so high-quality and delicious, we knew the impact on the community would be greatest if we opened up access across the socioeconomic spectrum: thus, Good Measure MealsTM was born. Our medically tailored meals are prepared, cooked, and delivered in an effort to improve health outcomes for all, because we believe food is medicine.
