Common questions

Answers before you have to ask

Is Vidafuel appropriate for fluid-restricted patients?

The volume is the reason most clinicians look at it. 60 g of supplemental protein takes 7.5 oz of Vidafuel. Whether it fits a specific patient’s plan is your clinical judgment — the comparison chart above lays out the math against common supplements.

Can we order it through our existing distributor?

Vidafuel is available through Cardinal Health, McKesson, Henry Schein, Medline, Metro Medical and US Foods. Contact us and we’ll send item numbers for your purchasing team.

Is there a billable code?

Vidafuel carries HCPCS code B4155. Coverage and billing rules vary by payer and setting.

What does the Clinical Access Program cost?

Nothing. It exists so clinicians can evaluate the product with real patients and pass along a discount to those who want to keep using it at home.
