Congratulations to lead author Daniel Walker, PhD, MPH, and his co-authors on the publication of their recent paper, Utilization Patterns of a Food Referral Program: Findings from the Mid-Ohio Farmacy, in the Journal of the American Board of Family Medicine. The publication, which also received attention from Wexner Medical Center Media Relations in the form of a recent news release, indicates that people who have received a perception for health food are less likely to fill it if they have not previously visited a food bank when compared to those who have previous experience with food banks. The study will help the Wexner Medical Center address this gap as it expands its partnership with the Mid-Ohio Farmacy.
