All patients have the right to receive high quality care, and that includes nutrition support products as part of their care. At times, access to nutrition support products — such as medical foods — can be a significant challenge for patients. As a result, HNC raises awareness and works with key stakeholders to help overcome obstacles to patient access. We continue to work towards systematic changes that will foster innovation and utilize new science and discoveries, ultimately leading to higher quality healthcare, better patient outcomes, and improvements in overall patient health and nutrition.
HNC is an association representing manufacturers of enteral nutrition (EN) formulas and oral nutrition supplements (ONS), including those categorized as medical foods, and parenteral nutrition (PN). HNC’s mission is to improve patient outcomes by advancing nutrition policies and actions that raise awareness and optimize access of essential nutrition support therapies across the continuum of care.
