RDs Now Recognized as Alberta Blue Cross Prescribers
In March 2025, a Pharmacy Benefact was sent to pharmacists stating Registered Dietitians (RDs) are now eligible prescribers of infant formulas and nutritional products on the Alberta Drug Benefit List and Alberta Human Services Drug Benefit Supplement.
RDs are now able to prescribe these products to support more timely, efficient, and cost effective care for clients and patients.
