The bill introduces new provisions to chapters 74.39A and 74.09 of the Revised Code of Washington (RCW) regarding the provision of medically tailored meals to clients and enrollees. It mandates that any benefits administered through contracted entities for medically tailored meals should prioritize sourcing from Washington state-based, nonprofit organizations. The meals must comply with a nutrition care plan reviewed and approved by a qualified medical professional, ensuring they align with evidence-based nutritional guidelines, accommodate dietary needs and preferences, and meet specific caloric and nutritional standards.

Additionally, the bill defines key terms such as "medically tailored meal," which refers to meals designed by qualified medical professionals for specific medical conditions, and "medically tailored meal vendor," which denotes vendors providing these meals according to professional specifications. The legislation emphasizes the importance of local sourcing and nutritional adequacy in the meals provided, aiming to enhance the health outcomes of clients and enrollees receiving these benefits.
