Women, Infants & Children (WIC) Information Sharing and Opting Out
Women, Infants & Children (WIC) Information Sharing and Opting Out
The Wyoming Women, Infants & Children (WIC) Program offers benefits to low-income women who are pregnant, breastfeeding, or who just had a baby, and families with children under the age of 5. Nutritious food items, as well as many other benefits, are available for many Wyoming families through WIC. In order to facilitate eligibility of Wyoming families for WIC services, Wyoming Medicaid automatically shares Medicaid application information with state or local WIC offices.
Anyone who wishes for their Medicaid application information not to be automatically shared with WIC can complete the Medicaid-WIC Online Opt-Out Form at this link.
