ATTACHMENT A STATEMENT OF WORK-VENDOR
This document is a Statement of Work (SOW) to identify the responsibilities of the Vendor.
Responsibilities of the Vendor include:
1. Demonstrate its capability to accept Women, Infants and Children (WIC) benefits electronically prior to authorization, and comply with WIC Electronic Benefit Transfer (EBT) operating rules, standards and technical requirements. If a Vendor is necessary for participant access and cannot accept WIC benefits electronically, the Agency may provide the Vendor with a stand beside Point of Sale (POS) system.
2. Comply with procedures and responsibilities set forth in the Wyoming WIC Vendor Manual (Vendor Manual), all regulations including, but not limited to, 7 CFR § 246.12, 19-21, and all reasonable requests from the Agency. The Vendor Manual is incorporated into this Agreement by this reference. The Vendor’s failure to comply with benefit redemption procedures outlined in the Vendor Manual may result in the Agency’s refusal to pay for participant/parent/ caretaker/proxy WIC redemptions.
3. Stock and maintain a supply of at least the minimum varieties of authorized foods as identified in the Vendor Manual and subsequent written communications from the Agency throughout the agreement period. Failure to do so may result in termination from the Agency.
4. Have more than fifty percent (50%) designated shelf space for non-WIC edible food items, and non-WIC food transactions must be more than fifty percent (50%) of total edible food sales.
5. Maintain a minimum of eight (8) hours of operation daily, six (6) days a week. 6. Purchase and sell only infant formula that has been purchased directly from food
wholesalers, distributors and retailers currently licensed in the State in accordance with state laws and regulations, or food manufacturers registered with the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (USDA). A list of approved wholesalers/distributors, retailers and manufacturers is maintained by the Agency and is available upon request.
7. Provide sanitary and safe storage conditions and first quality merchandise. The Vendor cannot stock or sell out-of-date WIC commodities to WIC participants (i.e., past the product’s expiration, “best if used by”, “sell by”, “use by” and any other date limiting the sale or use of the food item).
8. Provide WIC supplemental foods at or below the current price charged to other customers. These prices must also be competitive within each Vendor’s assigned peer group and at or below the maximum allowable reimbursement levels. Vendors will be assigned to peer groups based on criteria determined by the Agency as listed in the Vendor Manual (a new Vendor’s peer group assignment will be evaluated within six (6) months to ensure proper placement and competitive price levels). Shelf prices shall be plainly marked. Failure to do so may result in termination from the Agency.
9. Not charge sales tax on purchases made with Wyoming WIC EBT System Today (WYO W.E.S.T.) cards.
10. Not ask the WIC participant/parent/caretaker/proxy to pay cash for the sales tax amount that is applied to manufacturer’s coupons, but instead shall subtract the sales tax on the
Attachment A to the Agreement between Wyoming Department of Health, Public Health Division
and Template – Vendor Not Specified
Page 2 of 7
coupon from the face value of the coupon and then shall subtract the remaining value of the coupon from the retail price of the WIC food(s). 7 CFR § 246.12(h)(3)(vii).
11. Maintain an average of more than one hundred dollars ($100.00) in WIC sales or ten (10) or more participants purchasing WIC benefits at this Vendor per month. Pharmacies are exempt.
12. Allow the participant/parent/caretaker/proxy to purchase only those WIC approved foods listed on the participant’s benefit balance receipt and the Wyoming WIC Authorized Product List. Provide only the approved foods in authorized quantities and size specified. The participant/parent/caretaker/proxy does not have to purchase all the foods listed on the benefit balance receipt, but may not purchase more than what is listed.
13. Accept only WYO W.E.S.T. cards for WIC purchases within the benefit time period authorized.
14. Not charge participants/parents/caretakers/proxies for authorized supplemental foods obtained with the WYO W.E.S.T. card. In addition, the Vendor may not seek restitution from participants/parents/caretakers or proxies for WIC supplemental foods purchased in a WYO W.E.S.T. transaction that were not paid for or only partially paid for by the Agency. The Agency is not obligated to pay for improperly handled or voided Electronic Benefit Transfer (EBT) transactions. 7 CFR § 246.12(h)(3)(x).
15. Disallow credits, rain checks, cash, unauthorized foods or non-food items, WIC food substitutions or substitutions of other items of value for WIC benefits redeemed. None of these items may be offered in exchange for WIC purchased foods being returned.
16. Not provide refunds or permit exchanges for authorized supplemental foods obtained with WYO W.E.S.T. card benefits, except for exchanges of an identical authorized supplemental food item when the original authorized supplemental food item is defective, spoiled, or has exceeded its “sell by,” “best if used by” or other date limiting the sale or use of the food item. An identical authorized supplemental food item means the exact brand and size as the original authorized supplemental food item obtained and returned by the participant/parent/caretaker/proxy. 7 CFR § 246.12(h)(3)(ii).
17. Not allow cash change to a WIC customer for purchases less than the total value of the cash value benefit (CVB) for fresh fruits and vegetables. 7 CFR § 246.12 (h)(3)(x).
18. Reimburse the Agency for claims submitted for payments already made by the Agency for charges of more than the actual purchase of the supplemental foods. The Agency may make price adjustments to the purchase price on WIC transactions submitted by the Vendor for redemption to ensure compliance with the price limitations applicable to the Vendor. When the Agency determines the Vendor has committed a Vendor violation that affects the payment to the Vendor, the Agency will delay payment or establish a claim. The Vendor must submit payment for the claim or an adequate justification for the excessive charge to the Agency within (30) days of written notification. The Agency may offset the claim against current and subsequent amounts to be paid to the Vendor. In addition to denying payment or assessing a claim, the Agency may sanction the Vendor for Vendor overcharges or other errors in accordance with the Agency’s sanction schedule. 7 CFR § 246.12(h)(3)(viii)(ix).
19. Submit requested price surveys by the specified date. 20. Give the same courtesies and discounts to WIC participants/parents/caretakers/proxies as
to other customers. 7 CFR § 246.12(h)(3)(iii). This includes all store promotions, i.e., Coupons, “Buy-One-Get-One-Free”, “Two-for-One”, Discount/Club Cards, etc. Any

22. Deny service to WIC participants/parents/caretakers/proxies only for the following: A. Verbal abuse, physical abuse, or threat of physical abuse to Vendor’s staff; B. Theft or attempted theft of Vendor’s items; C. Abuse of the Supplemental Nutrition Assistance Program (SNAP/Food Stamp
Program). If service is denied for the above reasons, all non-WIC purchases must also be denied.
23. Require at least one (1) representative attend required training (annually, or more often as needed) on the Agency policies and procedures. Representatives attending the training will be required to train all other managers and employees. The Agency will have sole discretion to designate the date, time, and location of all interactive training, except that the Agency will provide the Vendor with at least one alternative date on which to attend such training. 7 CFR § 246.12(h)(3)(xi)(xiii). The Vendor is required to complete or attend mandatory training sessions as noted:

Change in ownership and cessation of operations terminates the Agreement and the Vendor will need to reapply as a new applicant.

27. Provide the following information upon request by the Agency: A. Monthly, quarterly, or annual total volume of business; B. Monthly or annual gross edible food sales (food sales from foods eligible for

All electronic journals and transaction logs for WYO W.E.S.T. transactions and all program related records must be made available to representatives of the Agency, the Department of Agriculture and Comptroller General of the United States, at any reasonable time and place for inspection and audit. 7 CFR § 246.12(j)(4)(i)(ii) and (h)(3)(xv).
28. Permit WIC authorized personnel to monitor the Vendor (on-site) for compliance with WIC rules and regulations, i.e., conducting compliance buys. The Vendor agrees to permit interviews with cashiers of the WIC Vendor monitor’s choice and access to shelf price records, if available. A WIC authorized Vendor may be selected to be investigated at random or based on specific monitoring, complaints or redemption analysis findings.
29. Maintain a professional relationship with the Agency’s local and state personnel in fulfilling their responsibilities which involve the Vendor.
30. Not be employed by, or have a spouse, child, parent, or a sibling employed by the local WIC agency providing service in the county in which the Vendor is located. For purposes of the preceding sentence, the term “Vendor” means a sole proprietorship, partnership, cooperative association, corporation or other business entity, and any person who owns or controls more than a ten percent (10%) interest in the partnership, corporation or other business entity. 7 CFR § 246.12(h)(3)(xix).
31. Remain in compliance with the selection criteria as stated in the Vendor Manual, including any changes to the criteria. The Agency may re-assess the Vendor any time during the Agreement period. If the Vendor fails to meet the criteria at any time during the Agreement period, the Vendor may be removed from the Agency for administrative non-compliance with these criteria. The Vendor has thirty (30) days after being given a written notification in which to correct any failure to meet these criteria before removal from the Agency. If the Vendor has been removed from the Agency because of administrative non-compliance for more than thirty (30) days and wishes to re-apply to the Agency, the Vendor will be subject to the selection criteria. 7 CFR § 246.12(h)(3)(xxiv).
32. Maintain the Agency’s certified in-store Electronic Cash Register (ECR) system in a manner necessary to ensure system availability for WIC EBT redemption processing during all hours the Vendor is open. The Vendor agrees that its ECR system shall transact cash value for authorized fruits and vegetables. Execution of this Agreement is conditioned on the Vendor maintaining its state certified in-store ECR system that accommodates cash value. After execution of this Agreement, the Vendor’s failure to maintain a state-certified ECR system on an on-going basis that ensures system compliance with WIC policies and procedures, transacts cash value, or ensures the accuracy of data, shall result in termination of the Agreement.
33. Have a current, paid maintenance agreement in place with their system dealer/technical support personnel. Failure to do so will result in termination of the Agreement.

34. Ensure the certified in-store EBT redemption process allows a reasonable degree of security for protecting the Personal Identification Numbers (PIN) used by WIC participants. Only the WIC participant may enter the PIN to initiate the transaction. The Vendor must not enter the PIN for the WIC participant.
35. Provide necessary receipts for the WIC participant to accept/approve or reject the WIC transaction. Vendor personnel shall NOT accept/approve or reject/cancel the WIC transaction for the WIC participant.
36. Release the food benefits to the WIC participant any time the WYO W.E.S.T. card is decremented, even if the system fails to build a Claim file or include the transaction in the Claim file.
37. Scan or manually enter Universal Product Code/Price Look Up (UPC/PLU) codes only for WIC authorized items being redeemed. Never scan codes from UPC/PLU codebooks, reference sheets or from any product not actually purchased with the WYO W.E.S.T. card.
38. Request state recertification of the Vendor’s in-store ECR system if Vendor alters/revises the system in any manner that impacts the WIC EBT redemption/claims processing after initial certification is completed. In the event an in-store ECR system is reconfigured or modified by the Vendor or other parties in such a way that the ECR system no longer exhibits the required system accuracy, integrity, or performance required and under which requirements the ECR system was certified, the Agency will not accept a Claim file from the system. The Vendor is liable for the costs of all recertification events needed to return the ECR system covered by this Agreement to full compliance with the Agency’s system requirements. Failure to seek recertification when the Vendor’s ECR system is altered/revised shall subject the Vendor to financial liabilities or disqualification.
39. Connect the Vendor’s ECR system to the State’s WIC EBT System at least once each forty eight (48) hour period for the purpose of claim submission and downloading of the current Hot Card List file, Error file, Auto-Reconciliation (settlement) file, and the WIC Authorized Product “UPC/PLU” List file.
40. Accept financial liability for WIC EBT benefit redemptions resulting from hot card transactions if the Vendor has NOT connected to the Agency’s EBT System within a contiguous forty eight (48) hour period of time and updated the Hot Card List file information.
41. Accept financial liability for a WIC EBT transaction submitted for payment sixty (60) days after the date of the transaction.
42. Comply with the Agency’s policies for creating and updating the in-store UPC/PLU category/subcategory table of WIC authorized foods. Failure to comply shall result in the Vendor’s financial liability for WIC EBT sales transactions involving invalid or unauthorized UPC/PLU codes.
43. Adhere to the International Federation for Produce Standards (IFPS) for product look-up codes (PLU) for the purpose of WIC EBT claim submission. Any fruit/vegetable UPC/PLU reserved for store use must map back to an International Standard PLU for the same produce in the WIC EBT Product List.
44. Reimburse the Agency pro-rata for WIC EBT system costs, if applicable, if the Vendor is disqualified, terminated, or closed.
45. Notify the Agency of any change in bank routing or account number seven (7) business days prior to the effective date of the change.
Attachment A to the Agreement between Wyoming Department of Health, Public Health Division
and Template – Vendor Not Specified
Page 6 of 7
46. Maintain strict confidentiality of all client and system data (EBT production keys and secret codes covered by this Agreement, as well as, their corporate offices/ECR suppliers.) No information may be provided to any non-party person or entity without the prior written approval of the Agency.
47. Not use, reproduce or apply any stickers, tags, channel strips, shelf talkers, labels or signage that have the WIC acronym or logo on WIC-approved products except those provided or approved by the Agency. The Vendor agrees not to use any aspect of the WIC acronym or logo, or close facsimiles in the name of the Vendor, Vendor advertising, promotional material, or incentives. The WIC® logo and acronym are registered trademarks of the United States Department of Agriculture. WIC Vendor compliance with the policies regarding the use of the WIC acronym and logo will be evaluated at the initial on-site authorization visit, any other on-site visit regardless of the reason, during educational or compliance purchase visits and by any other objective means.
48. Not treat WIC participants differently by offering them incentive items that are not offered to non-WIC customers.
49. Point of Sale (POS) terminals used to support the Program, whether single-function equipment or multi-function equipment, shall be deployed in accordance with the minimum lane coverage provision of 7CFR § 246.12(z)(2).
A. Superstores and supermarkets - There will be one POS terminal for every eleven thousand dollars ($11,000.00) in monthly WIC redemption up to a total of four POS terminals, or the number of lanes in the location, whichever is less.
B. All other Vendors - One POS terminal for every eight thousand dollars ($8,000.00) in monthly redemption up to a total of four POS terminals, or the number of lanes in the location; whichever is less.
50. Failure to comply with the terms of this Agreement, federal and state statutes, regulations, and policies and procedures governing the Program, including any changes made during the agreement period, may result in a warning, mandatory training, fines or disqualification from the Program, according to the type of violation as defined in this Agreement and in the Vendor Manual. The Vendor has the right to appeal disqualification as defined in the Vendor Manual. The Vendor is not entitled to receive any compensation for revenues lost as a result of permanent disqualification. Vendors are responsible for ensuring that owners, managers, employees or agents acting on behalf of the Vendor comply with all of the requirements of this Agreement, Vendor Manual, and WIC Vendor policies governing and regulating the Program. 7 CFR § 246.12(h)(3)(xxii).
51. This Agreement does not constitute a license or a property interest. If the Vendor wishes to continue to be authorized beyond the period of its current Agreement, the Vendor must re-apply for authorization. If a Vendor is disqualified, the Program shall terminate the Agreement, and the Vendor will have to re-apply in order to be authorized after the disqualification period is over. The Vendor’s new application shall be subject to the Program’s selection criteria at the time of re-application. 7 CFR § 246.12(h)(3)(xxi).
52. The provision of sanctions for Program abuse to be imposed on the Vendor shall not be construed as excluding or replacing any criminal or civil sanctions or other remedies that may be applicable under any federal, state or local ordinance. A Vendor who commits fraud or abuse of the Program is liable for prosecution under applicable federal, state or
Attachment A to the Agreement between Wyoming Department of Health, Public Health Division
and Template – Vendor Not Specified
Page 7 of 7
local laws. Under 7 CFR Section 246.12(h)(3)(xx) of the Program regulations, those who have willfully misapplied, stolen or fraudulently obtained WIC funds shall be subject to a fine of not more than twenty-five thousand dollars ($25,000.00) or imprisonment of not more than five (5) years, or both, if the value of the funds is one hundred dollars ($100.00) or more. If the value is less than one hundred dollars ($100.00), the penalties are a fine of not more than one thousand dollars ($1,000.00) or imprisonment for not more than one (1) year or both.
53. A Vendor’s failure to remain price competitive is cause for termination of the Agreement, even if actual payments to the Vendor are within the maximum reimbursement amount. 7 CFR § 246.12 (h)(3)(vii).

ATTACHMENT B STATEMENT OF WORK-AGENCY
This document is a Statement of Work (SOW) to identify the responsibilities of the Agency.
Responsibilities of the Agency include:
1. Pay the Vendor within sixty (60) days of receipt for all valid WIC Electronic Benefit Transfer (WIC EBT) transactions properly submitted to the Agency. WIC EBT transactions may be deemed invalid for payment or, if paid, future payments may be offset for any of the following reasons:
A. The Vendor does not successfully transmit the Claim file to the Agency EBT Processing System within forty eight (48) hours of the earliest transactions contained in the Claim file unless the Agency’s WIC EBT Processing System was not functional during this period. The Vendor may request an extension in case the Vendor is unable to comply based upon unforeseeable circumstances (i.e., computer system failure). Transactions will not be paid if submitted sixty (60) days after the date of the transaction;
B. The Vendor processes a transaction for a WYO W.E.S.T. card that was on the Agency’s WIC “Hot Card” List file for more than forty-eight (48) hours;
C. Transaction data appears to be forged or altered; D. The transaction electronic signature is incorrect, incomplete, or missing; E. The Vendor accepted the transaction while disqualified or terminated from the
Agency or did not have a fully executed/valid WIC Vendor Agreement; F. Unauthorized foods or unauthorized brands or unauthorized quantities of foods
have been purchased in a WIC EBT transaction. This includes, but is not limited to, items purchased by a WIC participant before the effective date or after the expiration date of the UPC in the Agency’s WIC Authorized Product “UPC/PLU” List during a WIC transaction;
G. The price of the food item within a transaction exceeds the UPC maximum price designated by the Agency for that food item and quantity, or exceeds the Vendor’s customary selling price for the food issued;
H. The transaction includes UPCs/dollar amounts for foods not received by the WIC participant.
2. Take follow-up action within one hundred twenty (120) days of detecting any questionable food instruments, suspected Vendor overcharges, and other errors.
3. Accept the batch transmission of WIC EBT transactions through public internet access to the WIC Program’s EBT System.
4. Make available to the Vendor’s ECR system the Program’s Authorized Product UPC/PLU List file, the Hot Card List file, and Auto-Reconciliation or Acknowledgment files for previously submitted Claim files.
5. Provide training in WIC procedures and authorized foods, and follow-up on complaints received by WIC Vendors or participants/parents/caretakers/proxies on request and as necessary.
Attachment B to the Agreement between Wyoming Department of Health, Public Health Division
and Template – Vendor Not Specified
Page 2 of 3
6. Provide regular monitoring (including on-site monitoring) for compliance with written reports that include Vendor activity.
7. Maintain a professional relationship with Vendor personnel in fulfilling their responsibilities.
8. Ensure that no conflict of interest exists, as defined by applicable state laws, regulations, and policies, between the Agency and any Vendor under its jurisdiction. If the Agency determines that a conflict of interest exists between the Vendor and the Agency, at either the state or local level, this Agreement will be terminated.
9. Restrict the use or disclosure of confidential Vendor information; except for Vendor name, address, telephone number, Web site/e-mail address, store type and authorization status to:
A. Persons directly connected with the administration or enforcement of WIC Program and SNAP violations under federal, state, or local law;
B. Persons directly connected with the administration or enforcement of any federal or state law, provided a written agreement is signed that covers re-disclosure;
C. A Vendor that is subject to adverse action, provided the confidential information concerns the Vendor subject to the action;
D. U.S. Department of Agriculture (USDA) and the Comptroller General of the United States.
Restrict the use or disclosure of SNAP retailer information obtained from the SNAP to: A. Persons directly connected with the administration or enforcement of the WIC
Program; B. USDA and the Comptroller General of the United States.
10. Not pay for ongoing maintenance, processing fees or operational costs for Vendor systems and equipment used to support WIC EBT, unless the equipment is used solely for the Agency or the Agency determines the Vendor using multi-function equipment is necessary for participant access. Costs shared by the Agency will be proportional to the usage for the Agency.
11. The maximum allowable reimbursement amount of any transaction submitted for payment shall not exceed the average cost plus a percentage for that food item in accordance to the assigned peer group of the Vendor. The Program cannot pay a Vendor at a level that would otherwise make the Vendor ineligible for authorization.
12. The WIC Program may disqualify a Vendor or impose a Civil Money Penalty (CMP) in lieu of disqualification for reasons of Program abuse. If the Program finds that a Vendor has committed a violation that requires a pattern of occurrences in order to impose a penalty of sanction, the Program will notify the Vendor of the initial violation in writing, prior to documentation of another violation, unless the Program determines, in its discretion, on a case-by-case basis, that notifying the Vendor would compromise an investigation. Vendors will be given at least a thirty (30) day written notice before imposing sanctions and the opportunity to appeal the adverse action within thirty (30) days of the notification except for permanent disqualification, in which case the Program must take immediate action. 7 CFR § 246.12(l)(1)(i) and 246.12(l)(3).
13. The WIC Program shall disqualify a Vendor who has been disqualified from SNAP, unless inadequate participant/parent/caretaker/proxy access is determined. If the WIC Program determines that disqualification of the Vendor would result in inadequate participant
Attachment B to the Agreement between Wyoming Department of Health, Public Health Division
and Template – Vendor Not Specified
Page 3 of 3
access, the WIC Program must impose a CMP in lieu of disqualification. 7 CFR § 246.12(l)(1)(vii.
14. The WIC Program has the option to disqualify a Vendor against whom the SNAP has assessed a CMP in lieu of disqualification due to participant/parent/caretaker/proxy hardship. A SNAP participant/parent/caretaker/ proxy hardship determination does not obligate the WIC Program to conclude that the disqualification would result in inadequate WIC participant/parent/caretaker/proxy access. In this case, a Vendor shall be given appeal rights. However, neither the SNAP decision to impose a CMP, nor the WIC Program determination on participant/parent/caretaker/proxy access are subject to review. The areas subject to review include:
A. Whether the Vendor was assessed a CMP in lieu of disqualification by the SNAP; B. Whether the SNAP CMP was imposed due to a participant/parent/caretaker/proxy
hardship; C. If the Agreement included the required notice that the Vendor was potentially
subject to a WIC disqualification based on a SNAP CMP. 7 CFR § 246.12(l)(2)(ii). If inadequate participant access is determined, then the Program shall continue the Vendor’s authorization, determine the Vendor to be high-risk for the length of the SNAP disqualification and monitor accordingly.
15. The WIC Program shall disqualify a Vendor who has been disqualified from or assessed a CMP in lieu of disqualification by another WIC state agency for a mandatory Vendor sanction unless inadequate participant/parent/caretaker/proxy access is determined. The length of the disqualification must be for the same length of time as the disqualification by the other WIC state agency or, in the case of a CMP in lieu of disqualification assessed by the other WIC state agency, for the same length of time for which the Vendor would otherwise have been disqualified. The disqualification may begin at a later date than the sanction imposed by the other WIC state agency. If the WIC Program determines that disqualification of the Vendor would result in inadequate participant access, the WIC Program must impose a CMP in lieu of disqualification, except that the WIC Program may not impose a CMP in situations in which the Vendor has been assessed a CMP in lieu of disqualification by the other WIC state agency. 7 CFR § 246.12(l)(2)(iii).

ATTACHMENT C VIOLATIONS AND SANCTIONS
If the Agency finds that a Vendor has committed a violation that requires a pattern of occurrences in order to impose a penalty of sanction, the Agency will notify the Vendor of the initial violation in writing, prior to documentation of another violation, unless the Agency determines, in its discretion, on a case-by-case basis, that notifying the Vendor would compromise an investigation.
1. MANDATORY VENDOR SANCTIONS.

D. One (1) Year Disqualification: The Agency shall disqualify a Vendor for one (1) year for a pattern of providing unauthorized food items in exchange for food instruments (WYO W.E.S.T. card benefits), including charging for supplemental food provided in excess of those listed on the food instrument (EBT receipt).
E. Second Mandatory Sanction: A Vendor who has been previously assessed a mandatory sanction for any of the mandatory sanctions listed above (numbers 2-4) shall have the second sanction doubled. Civil Money Penalty (CMP) may only be doubled up to the limits allowed, as defined by this Agreement.
F. Third or Subsequent Mandatory Sanction: Vendors assessed a third mandatory sanction shall receive a double sanction with no CMP option.
G. A WIC disqualification based on a SNAP disqualification shall be for the same length of time and may begin at a later date and is not subject to administrative or judicial review under the Agency. 7 CFR § 246.12(l)(1)(vii).
H. The Agency shall not accept from any Vendor voluntary withdrawal or non-renewal as an alternative to imposing mandatory sanctions or disqualification. 7 CFR § 246.12(l)(1)(viii).
I. The Agency shall disqualify the Vendor based on the mandatory sanctions with the following exceptions: i. Cases of inadequate participant/parent/caretaker/proxy access in which case a CMP
would be assessed; ii. The Vendor had, at the time of the violation, an effective policy and training
program in effect to prevent trafficking; and the ownership of the Vendor was not aware of, did not approve of, and was not involved in the conduct of the violation. (This exception is only an option for the trafficking conviction.) Any documented policies must have been dated in written form and the training documented prior to the violation in which case a CMP would be assessed. The Agency shall not give a CMP for a third or subsequent mandatory sanction. 7 CFR § 246.12(l)(1)(i).
2. ESTABLISHED VIOLATIONS AND SANCTIONS.
A. The Agency shall disqualify a Vendor for multiple violations subject to Agency sanctions during a single investigation, based on the most serious violation. All violations shall be included in the notice of administrative action. If a mandatory sanction is not upheld, the Agency may impose Agency established sanction. 7 CFR § 246.12(l)(1)(xii).
B. The following Agency established sanctions may be added within an investigation or doubled, provided the total disqualification period does not exceed one (1) year per investigation or CMPs do not exceed the maximum amount of fifteen thousand six hundred ninety two dollars ($15,692) for each violation. The CMP calculation and
Attachment C to the Agreement between Wyoming Department of Health, Public Health Division
and Template – Vendor Not Specified
Page 3 of 6
collection will be the same for both mandatory and state disqualifications. The total amount of CMPs imposed for violations investigated, as part of a single investigation, shall not exceed sixty two thousand seven hundred sixty seven dollars ($62,767). If a Vendor fails to comply with the terms of a CMP, the Vendor shall be disqualified for the length of time corresponding to the sanction. The Agency sanction may not be added to a mandatory sanction within the same investigation. However, an Agency sanction may be imposed from the same investigation in situations where the mandatory sanctions are not upheld on appeal. 7 CFR § 246.12(l)(2)(i).
C. All Agency authorized Vendors shall be assessed, on an on-going basis, for possible Agency established violations and sanctions. All points are cumulative and will be kept current for a period of one (1) year as long as the Vendor is authorized on the program. Points accrued for each violation will be erased one year after the date of the violation regardless of a renewal of a Vendor Agreement.

WIC PROGRAM INFORMATION
WIC is a federally-funded program that provides supplemental foods, health care referrals, and nutrition education for low-income pregnant, breastfeeding, and non-breastfeeding postpartum women and for infants and children (up to age 5) who are found to be at nutritional risk.
Benefits to participants in the WIC Program include:
• Education and counseling about nutrition and health • Referrals to other health services that can be of assistance • Education, training, and support for successful breastfeeding • Nutritious supplemental foods prescribed by WIC staff
The goals of WIC are to:
• Reduce the incidences of low birth weight babies • Increase the incidence and duration of breastfeeding • Increase knowledge of nutrition and preventative health
Participant Eligibility
A participant is eligible if they:
• Live in Wyoming
• Are a pregnant, breastfeeding woman (eligible up to 1 year after delivery) or postpartum woman who is not breastfeeding (eligible for six months after delivery); or an infant or child (up to age 5)
• Have a medical or nutrition need
• Have a household income that is based on household size and is less than or equal to 185% of the poverty level (income guidelines are set by the Federal Government and are updated annually)
How is WIC funded?
WIC is funded by the United States Department of Agriculture (USDA) and administered by the Wyoming Department of Health, Public Health Division. The WIC Program was established in 1972 by Congress and adopted in Wyoming in 1980. Local WIC Program services are available in all counties in Wyoming
Why does WIC specify infant formula brands?
Congress has mandated that WIC must use the infant formula company that provides the greatest savings to the Program. Wyoming joined a purchasing alliance with 25 western states, U.S. Territories, and Indian Tribal Organizations to achieve the greatest buying power. The Wyoming WIC Program agrees to purchase the manufacturer’s formula and in return, the manufacturer agrees to pay a rebate for each container of their infant formula purchased through the WIC program. Because of the competitive bidding process, the infant formula brand provided by the program is subject to change.
How do the vendors fit into the program?
Vendors (grocery stores) are critical to the success of the WIC Program. WIC participants receive WYO W.E.S.T. cards at their local WIC clinic. These cards contain food items designed to meet the specific nutritional needs of the participant, promote the healthiest possible birth outcomes, and promote the growth and development of children. Vendors act as the final step in the WIC process, ensuring that WIC customers receive the nutritious foods prescribed to them.
Page 6 of 37
WIC participants will typically shop for all their groceries, in addition to their WIC foods. This can have a positive impact on the store’s overall sales. WIC is good business. During 2020, Wyoming WIC participants purchased more than $4 million in approved foods from vendors. On average, participants spend $3 to $4 of their own money for every $1 of foods purchased with WIC benefits.
WYO W.E.S.T. Card
WYOming WIC EBT System Today. Below is a picture of Wyoming WIC’s EBT card. WIC benefits are loaded to the WYO W.E.S.T card 3 months at a time. WIC participants may have more than one WYO W.E.S.T card (i.e., a foster parent will have a WIC card for each foster child).
Card Problems
Participants will need to contact their local WIC clinic for any WYO W.E.S.T. card specific problems. If the local WIC clinic is not available, call the State Office at 307-777-7494 or 1-888-WYO-WEST.
PROGRAM ADMINISTRATION
Vendor Authorization Information
Vendors will be notified within 30 days after submission of their Application for Vendor Authorization (Appendix 1) whether or not it is approved. Approved vendors must agree to an on-site visit by the local vendor monitor to verify information provided in their Application is accurate. New vendor applications will be accepted on an ongoing basis and evaluated at that time.
Vendors must meet and maintain minimum requirements of authorization at all times during the Agreement period. Failure to do so may result in sanctions, up to and including termination of the Agreement. The Wyoming WIC Program may deny a vendor’s reapplication for authorization for failure to comply with program requirements.
Vendor Agreement
Vendors must sign a Vendor Agreement (Appendix 6) for the current Agreement period before any WIC transactions can occur. Once authorized, vendors are responsible for adhering to all conditions of the Agreement. The Vendor Agreement requires vendors to provide WIC foods at a competitive price.
The Vendor Agreement is between the Wyoming WIC Program and the vendor. For chain stores, the Agreement is not with the chain’s regional or corporate office, it is with the individual vendor. Vendor Agreements are valid for up to three years, as specified by the Agreement. Current WIC vendors will be notified prior to the expiration of the current Agreement and will be visited by the local vendor monitor for Agreement renewal.
Potential Above 50% Stores
SNAP eligible food sales are required by the Wyoming WIC Program if a vendor is identified by USDA/FNS as being a Potential 50% Store. SNAP eligible food sales are used to determine whether or not a vendor has more than 50% of its food sales from WIC transactions. If it is determined that the vendor does or will receive more than 50% of its food sales
Page 7 of 37
from WIC transactions, the Wyoming WIC Program will not authorize the vendor and will terminate the Agreement of an existing vendor.
The Wyoming Vendor Sales/Use Tax Return Form may be provided to the Wyoming WIC Program as documentation of SNAP eligible Food Sales (for 12 consecutive months).
Program Policy/Procedures
The Wyoming WIC Program sends out important information that can assist vendors in maintaining compliance with program requirements. Most of this information is sent via email. It is essential that all correspondence received is read and distributed to appropriate staff members. A current email address is required for every WIC authorized vendor. Vendors are responsible for employee training and ensuring employees are knowledgeable about current program policies and procedures. Ultimately, vendors are accountable for the actions of all store employees related to the WIC program. Vendors are encouraged to contact the local WIC agency or the state Vendor staff for clarification of program policies and procedures.
Clarifications, changes, and/or additions to the Wyoming WIC Program’s Policies and Procedures may be made throughout the Agreement period. These changes will be transmitted electronically to vendors through email. Vendors will be notified by email thirty days prior to the implementation of the new policy/procedure.
Vendor Responsibilities
1. Accept training and monitoring of vendor personnel by WIC staff.
2. Allow the WIC customer to purchase only those WIC approved foods listed on their benefit balance receipt and the Wyoming WIC Authorized Product List (APL). Provide only the approved foods in authorized quantities and sizes specified. The WIC customer does not have to purchase all the foods listed on the benefit balance receipt but may not purchase more than what is listed.
3. Give the same courtesies and discounts to WIC customers that are given to other customers (7 CFR 246.12(h)(3)(iii)). This includes all store promotions, (i.e., “Buy-One-Get-One-Free”, “Two-for-One”, and Discount/Club Cards). Any vendor who knowingly refuses to provide a promotion or discount to a WIC customer shall be in violation of the Agreement and may be sanctioned for discrimination.
4. Ensure that all cashiers are trained in proper acceptance and processing of the WYO W.E.S.T. card and will contact the POS provider to receive training on processing WIC transactions if needed.
5. Provide necessary receipts for the WIC customer to accept/approve or reject the WIC transaction. Vendor personnel shall NOT accept/approve or reject/cancel the WIC transaction for the WIC customer.
6. Release food benefits to the WIC customer any time the WYO W.E.S.T. card is decremented when the system fails to build a claim file or include the transaction in the claim file.
7. Scan or manually enter UPC/PLU codes only for WIC authorized items being redeemed. Never scan codes from UPC/PLU codebooks, reference sheets or from any product not actually purchased with the WYO W.E.S.T. card.
8. Adhere to the International Federation for Produce Standards (IFPS) for product look-up codes (PLU) for the purposes of WIC EBT claim submission. Any fruit or vegetable must use an IFPS PLU for claim submission or if it is a UPC or local/store PLU it must be mapped to an IFPS PLU.
9. Not use, reproduce or apply any stickers, tags, channel strips, shelf-talkers, labels or signage that have the WIC acronym or logo on WIC-approved products except those provided or approved by the Wyoming WIC Program. Not use any aspect of the WIC acronym or logo, or close facsimiles in the name of the vendor, vendor advertising, promotional material, or incentives.
Page 8 of 37
10. Not treat WIC customers differently by offering them incentive items that are not offered to non-WIC customers or not offering WIC customers the same courtesies that are offered to non-WIC customers. This is a violation of Federal WIC regulations, thereby constituting a vendor violation.
11. If an issue arises during a transaction requiring manager assistance, cashiers cannot publically identify the transaction as “WIC”.
POS Requirements
For participation in the Wyoming WIC program, a vendor applicant must demonstrate their cash register system or payment device can accurately and securely obtain WIC food balances associated with a WYO W.E.S.T. card; maintain the necessary files such as the APL, Hot Card List (HCL), and Claim file; and successfully complete WIC EBT purchases prior to authorization unless the Wyoming WIC Program determines that the vendor is necessary for participant access. Authorized vendors must comply with WIC EBT Operating Rules and the Technical Implementation Guide established by USDA/FNS.
Minimum lane coverage requirements - POS terminals shall be deployed as follows:
• Superstores and supermarkets - There will be one POS terminal for every $11,000 in monthly WIC redemption up to a total of four POS terminals, or the number of lanes in the location, whichever is less.
• All other vendors - One POS terminal for every $8,000 in monthly redemption up to a total of four POS terminals, or the number of lanes in the location; whichever is less.
The Wyoming WIC Program shall not pay ongoing maintenance or operational costs for vendor systems and equipment used to support WIC EBT, unless the vendor is needed for participant access. The rate of reimbursement to the vendor for WIC EBT ECR maintenance is determined by the Wyoming WIC Program (Request for Maintenance Reimbursement Form, Appendix 3). Any hardware/software problems related to WIC transactions will need to be resolved by vendor staff or by the vendor’s technical support. The Wyoming WIC Program is not responsible for servicing equipment in the grocery stores. Failure to take corrective action to get WIC transaction processing operational when it is inoperable may result in a sanction.
Note: If a system is temporarily unable to process WIC transaction, the vendor must inform customers by posting signs at all store entrances. If a lane is unable to conduct WIC transactions, a sign must be posted to indicate that the lane is temporarily down for WIC.
If SNAP transactions are not working, it does not mean that WIC transactions will not work.
SELECTION CRITERIA USED TO AUTHORIZE A VENDOR
Vendors may be assessed or re-assessed any time during the agreement period using the following vendor selection criteria. Vendors will be terminated if they fail to meet the following criteria:
1. Clearly mark shelf prices on all WIC items.
2. Be competitively priced within their assigned peer group. A vendor that is needed to ensure participant access to supplemental foods may be exempt to the competitive pricing criteria.
3. Demonstrate minimum stocking and inventory of WIC authorized foods as listed in this Vendor Manual.
4. No involvement in any activity that would indicate a lack of business integrity:
a. No history, during the last six years by the vendor applicant or any of the vendor applicant’s current owners, officers, or managers of having been convicted of or had a civil judgment entered against them for any activity, indicating a lack of business integrity. Activities indicating a lack of business integrity

FOODS AVAILABLE IN THE WIC PROGRAM
Foods approved by the Wyoming WIC Program are chosen based on their nutrient content, availability, cost, and acceptance by participants. WIC authorized foods are rich sources of WIC target nutrients such as; iron, calcium, protein, vitamins A and C, fiber, folic acid, vitamin B6, magnesium, and zinc. These nutrients are often missing in the diets of women, infants, and young children. WIC foods are meant to supplement participants’ diets and include the following:
• Dairy and Eggs
• Fruits and Vegetables
• Juice
• Whole Grains
• Beans and Peanut Butter
• Breakfast Cereal
• Fish
• Baby Foods
Vendors may not provide refunds or permit exchanges for authorized WIC foods except for exchanges with the exact same brand and size when the original WIC food is defective, spoiled, or has exceeded its “sell by” or “best if used by”, or other date limiting the sale or use of the food item. An identical authorized WIC food means the exact brand and size as the original WIC food obtained and returned by the clients.
Note: A large percentage of WIC food benefits are redeemed the first few days of the month. Be sure your shelves are well stocked at that time with WIC approved products.
Page 11 of 37
Food Shopping Guide
The Wyoming WIC Food Shopping Guide helps identify which brands, types, and sizes of foods are allowed to be purchased with WIC benefits. Vendors should keep a current copy at each cash register. If you need to copies of the food shopping guide, please contact your local vendor monitor or email [email protected]. The most current version of our food shopping guide can also be viewed on our website at: https://health.wyo.gov/publichealth/wic/foodlist/ or through the WICShopper app.
WIC participants receive the same food shopping guide from their local WIC clinic. Participants must always select foods by the designated types and specific brands listed on the WIC Food Shopping Guide. IF A BRAND OR TYPE OF FOOD IS NOT ON THE FOOD SHOPPING GUIDE, IT IS NOT APPROVED. NO SUBSTITUTIONS ARE ALLOWED.
Formula Exchanges
If a WIC customer requests a different formula than what they have loaded on their WIC card (or they purchased previously with their WIC benefits), please refer them to the local WIC clinic.
MINIMUM STOCKING REQUIREMENTS
Each vendor is required to stock a minimum variety and quantity of each type of WIC authorized food at all times. Vendors must provide food that is fresh and within its expiration date, sell by, best if used by, or used by date. The specific stocking requirements are referenced in the table below.
Stocking requirements differ for grocery store types.
• Large grocery store = 6 or more cashier lanes
• Small grocery store = 5 or less cashier lanes
If a vendor is out of stock of a specific item, the vendor CANNOT SUBSTITUTE it for another item.
If the vendor does not have adequate stock:
• The local vendor monitor will verify with vendor staff that additional stock is not present in the grocery store elsewhere.
• The local vendor monitor will verify the vendor has, or is applying for, a WIC Product Waiver (Appendix 2). If so, the vendor will not be required to stock certain WIC authorized foods:
o Powdered Soy Contract Formula
o Any Infant Formula
o Any Infant Products
o Fish
• Vendor staff will be advised that they are in violation of their current Vendor Agreement. The vendor will be sanctioned 6 points if stock is not met at the next local vendor monitor visit (within 30 days) and the Vendor Agreement can be terminated.
• A new vendor will not be authorized until the minimum stocking requirements are met.

Formula
Occasionally “special” formula will be issued to a WIC participant and must be specified on the Beginning Balance receipt. We ask that WIC customers communicate with the grocery store when they need a special formula which is not normally stocked in sufficient quantities in the store to meet their needs. The vendor must stock, within 72 hours, special formula at the request of the WIC customer and/or local WIC clinic. This formula should be available 2 days before the first of the month while requested. A hardship exemption may be applied for in writing to the State Vendor Coordinator regarding the 72 hour time frame which will be evaluated on an individual basis.
• If a limited amount of formula is available on the shelf and more is located in a separate area, post a sign to inform customers that you have additional formula and where to request it.
• An exception to the above infant formula/food requirements may be made in certain areas where infant formula/food is not being utilized. A Product Waiver must be signed by both the State Vendor Coordinator and the vendor to be kept in the vendor’s file.
o Any vendor, who is granted an infant formula/food waiver, must agree to have the infant formula/food available within 72 hours of the initial request by the WIC Program, and continue to keep the formula/food stocked as long as it is needed by the WIC customer(s).
NOTE: The Wyoming WIC Program is required to maintain a list of infant formula wholesalers, distributors and retailers licensed in the state, and infant formula manufacturers registered with FDA, from which authorized vendors shall purchase infant formula. This list will be posted on the Wyoming WIC Program’s website under Vendor Services.

MAPPING FRESH PRODUCE
Mapping refers to matching the WIC Vendor’s product identification numbers used in the store to those on the WIC State Agency’s APL file so that authorized WIC food items may be identified. Linking may be another term for mapping. If a store is not compliant with the mapping requirements below, it will result in a sanction.
• Fresh produce that has a retailer assigned UPC/PLU (UPC with a prefix of “4” or “9” or short PLU less than four digits), regular UPC or GTIN shall be mapped to a “like” IFPS PLUs and the mapped IFPS PLUs shall be used for purchase approval and reporting.
• Generic retailer-assigned PLU codes listed in the IFPS PLU list must be mapped to a specific “like” IFPS PLU.
• If a WIC vendor requires GS1 barcodes to be scanned in the checkout lane, the cash register must support WIC redemptions using these GS1 barcodes. The WIC vendor may embed the PLU code and use this to match the appropriate PLU code on the State APL file or establish other methods to match the barcode to the APL.
• Random weight (cut fresh fruit/vegetables) fresh produce items identified with a UPC prefix of “2” shall be mapped to an IFPS PLU for the food item and the mapped IFPS PLU shall be used for purchase approval and reporting.
• Mapping shall only be done for fresh fruits and vegetables identified as eligible for Cash Value Benefit (CVB) redemption in the Wyoming WIC APL. WIC eligible fresh produce includes:
o Regular and organic fresh produce
o Cut or whole fresh produce
o All packaging for fresh produce
o Fresh immature beans
o Fresh herbs (and cinnamon) may be added as an ingredient in products, but cannot be the main ingredient
o Cut fresh apples with added ascorbic acid and no added sugars (ascorbic acid to prevent browning is allowed)
o Garlic, including fresh garlic (not processed) in a jar
o Fresh salsa with vinegar and/or herbs
o Pumpkins must be edible and fit for consumption, not painted, decorated, or carved
• DO NOT map any of the following:
o Packages with butter, cheese, cream, croutons, dips, dressings, nuts and/or sauces
o Party trays/platters meant to be purchased and served to a group of people at a gathering or a party (i.e., party platters typically ordered through stores’ catering services or deli)
o Loose bulk herbs
o Fresh fruit with sugar (corn syrup, high-fructose corn syrup, maltose, dextrose, sucrose, honey and maple syrup)
o Fresh vegetables with sugar (corn syrup, high-fructose corn syrup, maltose, dextrose, sucrose, honey and maple syrup), fat or oils
The Appendix contains two lists to further help with mapping.
1. WIC Authorized PLUs (Appendix 8):
Page 15 of 37
a. These are the only codes Wyoming WIC will recognize and allow for WIC CVB purchase. You must use one of these 4 or 5 digit PLU codes when mapping.
i. Examples: • 033383902012 - bag of carrots can be mapped to 4094 (bunched carrots) • If carrots are loose, map to 4562 • If carrots are cut up, map to 4563 • For mixed fruit or vegetables, choose one of the fruits or vegetables in the
container/package for mapping i.e., container of cut-up melons (contains a mixture of watermelon, cantaloupe,
and honeydew) can be mapped to 4034 honeydew ii. PLUs for organic items will be 5 digits and begin with a “9”
• i.e., 4011 is the PLU for regular bananas; 94011 is the PLU for organic bananas 2. WIC Unauthorized PLUs (Appendix 9):
a. These PLUs cannot be used for mapping fresh produce and cannot be purchased with WIC CVB benefits. i. Examples:
• Dried • Decorative Fruits & Vegetables • Herbs/Spices as the main ingredient
WIC LOGO/SHELF TALKERS
The WIC® logo and acronym are registered trademarks of the USDA and therefore, WIC authorized vendors are not permitted to utilize any aspect of the WIC acronym or logo, or close facsimiles in the name of the store, store advertising, promotional material, or incentives. Use of the WIC acronym or logo, or close facsimiles in the name of the store, for advertising, promotional material, or incentives will result in sanctions. Use of the WIC acronym or logo, or close facsimiles prior to authorization in the name of the vendor, for advertising, promotional material, or incentives will cause a non-authorization status for 90 days from the notification of the inappropriate usage.
The Wyoming WIC Program restricts the use of channel strips or shelf talkers with the WIC acronym or logo to only those preapproved by the State Vendor staff. Vendors must send a written request and justification to the State Vendor Coordinator if the vendor wants to supply their own channel strips or shelf talkers and/or signage. The Wyoming WIC Program does not approve WIC shelf talkers/channel strips that contain any brand or company names or logos. If a vendor chooses to use WIC approved shelf talkers/channel strips on WIC allowable items, then all WIC-allowable items in the category must be labeled; not just a specific brand. The only exception to this is the labeling of infant formula. If a vendor chooses to label infant formula, only label the current contract brands of milk and soy-based formula in powder and concentrate. Vendors may have a sign, pamphlet, poster or brochure indicating that WIC is accepted at that store as long as the letters are printed in the same size and in the same print style.
To request channel strips or shelf talkers (Appendix 4) provided by the Wyoming WIC Program, please contact local or state WIC vendor staff.
WIC Vendor compliance with the policies regarding the use of the WIC Acronym and logo will be evaluated at the initial on-site authorization visit, any other on-site visits (regardless of the reason), during educational, or compliance purchase visits and by any other objective means.
CASHIER TRAINING
New cashiers should be trained how to do WIC transactions prior to a “live” WIC transaction. Cashiers should be trained using a WIC training card provided by the Wyoming WIC Program. The cash register lane can be placed in training mode and a WIC transaction simulated using the WIC training card. Benefits are never actually removed from a training card even though it will appear that benefits were removed from the card at the end of the WIC transaction. When the card
Page 16 of 37
is reinserted for a new transaction or balance inquiry, the benefits will be restored to the original balance. In training mode, all receipts will print just as they would in regular/redemption mode.
Cashiers should be trained on both single tender (WIC-only transactions) and multi-tender transactions (WIC and non-WIC transactions) with WIC. The training card should be kept in the Vendor Handbook or an alternate place where it will not be lost.
The WIC Program has put together a “Troubleshooting WIC Card” (Appendix 5) that can be provided to stores to place in each cash register lane as a reference for cashiers. Often when an error message appears on the card reader, there is nothing actually wrong with the card. Troubleshooting may resolve the problem so the WIC customer is able to shop with their WIC benefits.
Requirements
• WIC customers must be treated like all other customers. • Cashiers must scan the actual UPC of the product. Store staff are not permitted to override or allow any
substitutions by scanning a barcode from another product or by scanning a barcode from a pre-printed sheet. • Cashier must give the WIC customers the Redemption/Utilization receipt to identify the foods that will be
removed/deducted from their card/benefits. • Cashiers cannot ask for or enter the PIN for the WIC customer. • Cashiers cannot accept or cancel the WIC transaction for the WIC customer. • Cashiers should take the WIC customer to a different lane if their current register is not accepting WIC or is
having issues. • WIC customers must be allowed to leave store with any foods that are removed from their card. They should not
be expected to pay for their WIC foods when the WIC transaction is not successful. • Notify store management when fresh fruits and vegetables do not scan as WIC eligible. • If the WIC customer does not have current month benefits, please advise them to contact their local WIC clinic. • WIC can be voided and may need supervisor approval. • Allow WIC customers enough time to follow the prompts on the PIN Pad.
Balance Inquiry
Vendors must provide the WIC customer with a Benefit Balance receipt prior to beginning a purchase if requested by the WIC customer. Vendors cannot require a minimum purchase in order to process a balance inquiry.
Split Tender
Split tender refers to a single fresh or frozen produce item being redeemed using WIC CVB and using one or more additional methods of payment. For example, a WIC customer would like to purchase an avocado priced at $1.99, but only has $1.00 remaining CVB on their WIC card. With split tender, the WIC customer will be able to use the $1.00 CVB toward the avocado and the remaining $0.99 would move to the non-WIC total. This allows the WIC customer to “split” the cost of the avocado between their WIC benefit and a different tender.
Benefit Reversal
If the WIC customer does not have an alternate method of payment for a split tender transaction, a benefit reversal or WIC void may be performed and the WIC benefits returned/restored to the card. The new balance of WIC benefits shall be provided to the WIC customer on the receipt. In some stores, this may be a manager function.
Note: If store staff have questions about any of the above functions, please contact your technical support.
Page 17 of 37
RECEIPT INFORMATION
Cashiers must provide ALL WIC receipts to WIC customers. This include:
• A Beginning Balance receipt which prints at the beginning of every WIC transaction and displays what benefits are on the card for the current month prior to the WIC purchase.
• A Redemption/Utilization receipt which either prints or displays on the PIN pad after the cashier tenders WIC and must be provided to the WIC customer prior to confirming the transaction.
o Items applied to WIC that will be decremented from the card must be identified on the receipt.
o If the WIC customer agrees with what is on the Redemption/Utilization receipt (food items to be removed from their benefits), they can press “yes” on the PIN pad to confirm.
o If the WIC customer does not agree with what is to be taken off their WIC card, they can press “no” on the PIN pad. This will then allow changes to be made to the transaction and WIC to be re-tendered
• An Itemized Store receipt which displays all WIC food items, as well as, any non-WIC items that were purchased along with the total for the WIC purchase and any other payment types that were used in the transaction.
• An Ending Balance receipt will print after the entire transaction has been finalized and displays the remaining benefits on the card for the current month.
WIC EBT PRICING AND PROMOTIONS
WIC vendors may sell WIC-approved food items with special item pricing and/or promotional discounts that are available to all store customers. In addition, manufacturers and other organizations may offer all store customers promotional discounts based on satisfying certain purchase criteria via manufacturer coupons, electronic marketing and/or other marketing programs. Vendors must ensure that the Wyoming WIC Program does not pay more for a
Page 18 of 37
redeemed product than a typical customer of the store in accordance with the Agreement established with the Wyoming WIC Program, including item pricing, manufacturer coupons, loyalty card, and promotional discounts. Failure to provide the same courtesies to WIC customers is a violation of Federal WIC Regulations.
Vendors must apply item pricing and/or promotional discounts to WIC CVB purchases in the same manner as they are applied to purchases of other prescribed WIC foods. The WIC customers’ CVB should be decremented by the discounted price (the net price after the discount has been applied).
Vendor discounts included in this requirement are:
• Buy One, Get One Free (BOGO) • Buy One, Get One at a Reduced Price • Transaction Discounts ($ or % off an entire transaction) • Loyalty card discounts on WIC-allowable items • Manufacturer’s Coupons • Free ounces added to food item by manufacturer (bonus size items)
Note: For technical details on how to process WIC transactions with special item pricing and/or promotional discounts, refer to the rules set forth in the WIC EBT Operating Rules found at: https://www.fns.usda.gov/wic/wic-ebt-technical-implementation-guide-and-operating-rules.
IMPORTANT POINTS TO REMEMBER WHEN ACCEPTING A WYO W.E.S.T. CARD
How to know what food the WIC Customer should receive
All WIC foods that are issued to the WYO W.E.S.T. card for WIC customers are listed on the Beginning and Ending Balance receipts. The benefit expiration date is also listed at the bottom of the receipts. Food categories and quantities issued are listed on these receipts. No substitutions may be made.
What to do if an item does not scan as a WIC item
1. The item is not issued to the WIC customer. Check the beginning balance for the WIC customer. A common occurrence of this situation is with whole milk/yogurt as children over the age of 2 and women are typically issued low-fat/nonfat milk or yogurt.
2. The WIC customer may not have the benefits left for the purchase. For example, the WIC customer attempts to purchase an 18 ounce box of cereal but only has a beginning balance of 16 ounces of cereal.
3. The item is not WIC approved. Check the Wyoming WIC Food Shopping Guide.
a. If the item should be added to the WIC Approved Product List:
i. Take a picture of the product (include the name of the product, size, UPC code, nutrition facts panel, and ingredients) using a smart phone and email the pictures to [email protected].
ii. Using the WICShopper App, use the “I Couldn’t Buy This” button, complete the fields and submit the product. The request will be sent to State Office WIC Vendor staff.
b. If an item is approved, it will be added to the APL and will be available to purchase with WIC benefits.
4. There is a problem with the WYO W.E.S.T. card. If you suspect it is a WYO W.E.S.T. card problem, please have the WIC customer call their local WIC clinic or the 1-888-WYO-WEST number.
Page 19 of 37
What to do if a WIC customer says they have forgotten their PIN
The Wyoming WIC Program requires the WYO W.E.S.T. card to lock after a maximum of seven PIN attempts.
If a WIC customer does not know their PIN or if they locked their WYO W.E.S.T. card, refer the WIC customer to their local WIC clinic.
Approving/Canceling a WIC Transaction
Vendors must allow Wyoming WIC customers to cancel/void or approve/accept their own EBT transactions. Cashiers should NOT do this for the WIC customer. Cashiers must provide WIC customers with the Redemption/Utilization receipt which should print when the cashier hits the key to tender WIC.
Card/PIN Confidentiality
Vendors must keep all Wyoming WIC customer information confidential and at no time confiscate the WIC customer’s WYO W.E.S.T. card or ask for the PIN of the WYO W.E.S.T. card.
WYO W.E.S.T. Signs
Vendors are required to place WYO W.E.S.T. signs provided by the Wyoming WIC Program at every entrance of the store (visible to WIC customers as they enter the store). These signs may be requested from your local vendor monitor. If a store does not have a WYO W.E.S.T. sign at the entrances, it will result in a sanction.
WIC Smart Cards Found in the Store (Returning Lost Cards)
If a customer leaves their WIC EBT Smart card in your store:
1. Please notify your local vendor monitor/WIC clinic that WIC customer cards have been left in the store.
2. If the customer returns to claim the lost card, perform a Balance Inquiry, insert the card into the terminal and have the customer enter their PIN number. If the system accepts the PIN number and generates a Beginning Balance receipt, you may return the card to the customer.
TRANSACTING AND REDEEMING WIC BENEFITS
Transaction
1. WIC customer proceeds to a lane and informs cashier that they will be purchasing some/all foods with WIC.
a. WIC customers are not required to separate their WIC food items from other food items and do not need to pay for their WIC foods in a separate transaction.
b. When a WIC customer inserts the WYO W.E.S.T. card into the PIN pad, a Beginning Balance receipt will print. The Beginning Balance receipt may be combined with the Redemption/Utilization receipt in step 8. The cashier must give this receipt to the WIC customer.
2. All items are scanned in the POS and then the cashier hits the key to tender WIC. WIC is tendered first and food quantities are decremented off the card based on the amount of each category authorized for that WIC customer.
3. Cashier must give the WIC customer the Redemption/Utilization receipt or it must be displayed on the PIN pad which identifies the foods that will be removed from the WIC customer’s benefits.
4. WIC customer approves/accepts or cancels/voids the transaction.
a. If the WIC customer presses “yes” on the PIN pad and approves the transaction, the food quantities are decremented from the card
i. A benefit reversal can be done to put WIC benefits back on the card if a WIC customer does not have a different tender to pay the remaining balance of a CVB item (fresh fruit or vegetables) that was split with WIC benefits.
Page 20 of 37
b. If the WIC customer presses “no” or cancels the transaction, the cashier can remove or add WIC foods to the transaction or may void the entire transaction.
5. Cashier completes transaction.
a. Any remaining foods need to be tendered with another form of payment for the transaction to be completed.
b. Cashier will give the WIC customer the Itemized Store receipt (showing WIC and non-WIC items that were purchased) and the Ending Balance receipt.
Submission for Redemption
6. The vendor’s system periodically performs a data exchange with the WIC EBT processor FTP server for reimbursement for WIC transactions (at least once every 48 hours, but typically daily).
7. During the exchange, the following occurs:
a. Claim File is submitted by the vendor’s system which includes the details of all WIC transactions for that day.
i. If the Claim File is accepted and processed, an Auto Reconciliation File (ARF) is created.
ii. If the Claim File is not accepted/fails to process or if there are errors with any of the WIC transactions, an Acknowledgment File (ACK) will be created. The vendor may not be paid for the failed transaction or the entire failed claim. The vendor will need to correct the error if applicable and resubmit the Claim File for payment.
iii. A Claim File may be processed but there can be transaction and individual item level payment reductions. These will be reflected in the ARF.
iv. The ARF and the ACK files are picked up by the vendor’s system and the information is incorporated into the back office reporting. These files advise the vendor of:
• the specific amount of the claim paid,
• if there were any transaction or item level payment reductions,
• if there was any part of the claim not paid, and or the reason for any non-payment
b. A current HCL and an APL are pulled into the vendor’s system from the WIC EBT processor FTP server.
c. The HCL contains WIC WYO W.E.S.T. cards that have been hot carded for any reason, including loss, theft, or administrative action.
d. The APL contains a listing of the WIC authorized products (UPCs/PLUs) approved by the Wyoming WIC Program.
Reconciliation
8. On banking days, the WIC EBT processor initiates the payment for each vendor. It uses information in the vendor’s ARF to create an Automated Clearing House (ACH) credit for that day.
9. WIC State office staff retrieve the ACH payment file from the WIC EBT processor and uploads the file to the bank for processing. This will submit payment via direct deposit to the vendor’s bank account.
VENDOR PEER GROUPS AND COMPETITIVE PRICING
The Wyoming WIC Program is mandated to establish a vendor peer group system and distinct competitive price criteria and allowable reimbursement levels for each peer group. The Wyoming WIC Program must use the competitive price criteria to evaluate the prices a vendor applicant charges for supplemental foods (as compared to the prices charged by
Page 21 of 37
other vendor applicants and authorized vendors) and must authorize vendors that offer the program the most competitive prices (7 CFR 246.12 (g)(4)).
Vendors will be assigned to Peer Groups based on criteria determined by the Wyoming WIC Program as listed below:
• Vendor Type
o Chain Store – Peer Group 1
o Commissaries – Peer Group 2
o Super Store – Peer Group 3
o One Store/One Owner – Peer Group 4
o Multiple Stores/One Owner – Peer Group 5
If vendors are determined to be placed in the appropriate peer groups, redemption data will then be used to determine the maximum reimbursement levels/NTEs for competitive prices.
The Wyoming WIC Program may change a vendor’s peer group whenever it determines that placement in an alternate peer group is warranted (7 CFR 246.12 (g)(4)(ii)(C)). The Wyoming WIC Program must establish procedures to ensure that a vendor selected for participation in the program does not, subsequent to selection, increase prices to levels that would make the vendor ineligible for authorization (7 CFR 246.12 (g)(4)(iii).
A new vendor’s peer group assignment will be evaluated within six months to ensure proper placement and competitive price levels. 7 CFR 246.12 (g)(4)(i)(B).
At authorization, the Wyoming WIC Program shall notify vendors in writing of this assessment.
NOT-TO-EXCEED (NTE)
Vendors are reimbursed for foods purchased with WIC benefits. A reasonable price is determined based on the food item’s category, subcategory, or UPC.
Vendors whose prices are higher than established NTE prices will only be paid up to NTE reimbursement levels. A request for reconsideration of NTE reimbursement levels must be submitted to the Wyoming WIC Program for review.
Settlement reimbursements paid to vendors will be for the total dollar amount as approved by the Wyoming WIC Program at the time of purchase. This amount represents the lesser of either the vendor’s shelf price or the Wyoming WIC Program’s NTE price. The NTE maximum does not permit vendors to routinely charge the NTE amount. Vendors must charge competitive prices comparable with the average price charged in their peer group and not exceed the posted prices and the prices charged to other customers.
Vendors may be sanctioned for charging prices that exceed eligibility requirements.
AUTHORIZED PRODUCT LIST (APL)
The APL contains UPCs and PLUs for all WIC approved food items. The most current APL is available for download to the vendor’s system on a daily basis. APLs should automatically update. However, vendors are ultimately responsible for ensuring the most current version of the APL is available at all registers that process WIC transactions.
Items presented for purchase with WIC must be scanned or entered during the transaction. The POS will determine whether items are WIC approved and the WIC customer has available benefits. Items not approved by the system should never be processed as part of the WIC transaction.
Page 22 of 37
HOT CARD LIST (HCL)
What happens if a WIC customer tries to use a hot card?
If a customer tries to use a WIC WYO W.E.S.T. Card found on the current HCL, they will receive the system message “Card Error Return to Clinic”. The vendor’s system also locks the card if it is on the HCL and the customer will not be able to use it at any store. Please refer the customer to the local WIC clinic.
What happens if the store accepts a hot card?
As long as the store has downloaded the HCL within the last 48 hours, the WIC State Office will honor and pay hot card transactions. However, if a store’s Hot Card List is over 48 hours old, the store is liable for any hot card transactions accepted. The WIC State Office will not pay for these transactions and there is no appeal process for this issue.
CLAIM FILE SUBMISSION
The vendor is required to ensure submission/upload of Claim files to the WIC EBT processor FTP server. Regular business practices should be established for submitting Claim files to the Wyoming WIC Program, preferably within 24 hours of the transaction date. This should not occur between 11pm and 1am MST. Vendors are required to access the WIC EBT processor FTP server within a continuous 48 hour period of time for the purpose of downloading the current APL, HCL, ACK File (if applicable), and ARF (if applicable). Failure to do so may result in financial liability to the vendor.
PAYMENT DISPUTES
Vendors will be paid for all timely, valid WIC transactions conducted and electronically submitted to the Wyoming WIC Program. An authorized vendor may dispute a claim or transaction payment that has been reduced. This must be submitted to [email protected] as soon as it is discovered. There is no guarantee that dispute requests will be approved by the Wyoming WIC Program.
Late Claim Submission
WIC transactions can be submitted up to 60 days past the transaction date to be considered for payment. If a WIC transaction is submitted greater than 60 days past the date of the transaction, it will not be paid. The WIC program relies on timely submission of WIC transactions for replacement of benefits, reissuance/changes to benefits, fiscal reporting, and reconciliation of benefits in a given calendar month. If WIC transactions are not received timely, the Wyoming WIC Program can be found to be out of compliance with federal requirements.
Malformed Claims and Transactions
A dispute for the submission of a malformed transaction or claim must be received within 60 days of the date of the transactions in the claim. The vendor must provide an explanation of the event that caused the malformed submission of the claim file or individual transaction(s). If the vendor received an ACK file from the Wyoming WIC Program as a result of a malformed transaction or claim, the vendor must include this information in its written explanation specifying the original Claim file name that was rejected.
Invalid Electronic Signature
A dispute for the submission of an invalid electronic signature error must be received within 60 days of the date of the transaction. Errors related to electronic signatures on individual transactions within a Claim file may be caused by many factors and may require considerable investigation and assessment by the vendor, their technical support, and the Wyoming WIC Program. To dispute all or any part of a claim reduced because of invalid electronic signatures, a vendor must provide evidence that clearly demonstrates the transactions involved in the reduction were valid WIC transactions at the store. The vendor must provide evidence from the transaction log and/or electronic receipt copies that shows
Page 23 of 37
proof of the card being present in the lane, and WIC-eligible items being purchased and decremented from the card. The evidence must provide the PAN, date/time, lane number, UPCs purchased and category/subcategory information.
OTHER TRANSACTION ERRORS
A dispute for the submission of any other transaction errors must be received within 60 days of the transaction date. These transaction errors may require considerable investigation and assessment by the vendor, their technical support, and the Wyoming WIC Program. The vendor must provide evidence from the transaction log and/or electronic receipt copies that shows proof of the card being present in the lane and WIC-eligible items being purchased and decremented from the card. The evidence must provide the PAN, date/time, lane number, UPCs purchased and category/subcategory information.
If the vendor’s dispute is denied, the vendor will receive written notification explaining the reason for the denial.
If there is a question/concern regarding a WIC transaction, please contact the WYO W.E.S.T. customer service number (located in the “Introduction” section of this manual).
PAYMENT APPEALS
If the vendor’s dispute is denied and they wish to appeal the denial, the vendor must submit a written appeal to the Wyoming WIC Program at the following address:
Wyoming WIC Program 122 West 25th Street 3rd Floor West Cheyenne, WY 82002
OR via email to: [email protected]
If a vendor fails to notify the Wyoming WIC Program in advance of hardware and/or software changes that results in a late or malformed claim/transaction submission, the vendor will have to appeal the claim or transaction(s) that has been reduced. There is no guarantee that the appeal will be approved.
VENDOR MONITORING
The Wyoming WIC Program is required to monitor at least 5% of all WIC authorized vendors each federal fiscal year. Monitoring visits may be announced or unannounced and is performed by either WIC local clinic or State Office vendor staff.
• Monitoring is required for authorization/reauthorization.
• Monitoring visits may discuss problems that may be happening, answer questions, and address any concerns.
• Minimum stocking requirements, expired foods, labeling and pricing may be verified. Request to review infant formula invoices to ensure the store is purchasing formula from a Wyoming WIC authorized infant formula supplier.
• Ask about any changes at the store such as changes in ownership, management, store hours, etc.
• Verify WIC Shopping Guides are available at each functioning cash register.
• Verify “WYO W.E.S.T. Accepted Here” signs (Appendix 10) is at every entrance.
• Ask about in-store WIC training of new cashiers.
• Evaluate use of shelf talkers for appropriate placement.
Page 24 of 37
• Evaluate overall cleanliness of the store and whether coolers and freezers containing WIC-approved foods are working properly.
• Review of monthly WIC sales volume, problem transactions, and participant concerns regarding specific vendors.
• Make sure store staff know how to place a register in training mode.
COMPLIANCE INVESTIGATIONS
As mandated by USDA FNS, the Wyoming WIC Program must conduct compliance investigations of at least 5% of all vendors each federal fiscal year based on high-risk indicators or by random selection. Compliance investigations involve an unannounced, covert, in-store investigation by one or more WIC representatives posing as WIC customers using a WIC card to test the vendor’s compliance with the Vendor Agreement and program policies/redemption procedures. The WIC representative does not reveal to store personnel that they are a WIC representative during the visit. Violations documented during these visits may result in sanctions, up to and including disqualification and termination of the WIC authorization.
Vendors are notified in writing if they are violating WIC policies and procedures. They will also be informed of recommendations for corrective action and their appeal rights.
VENDOR TRAINING
Vendor training is designed to educate vendors on WIC program policies, notify vendors of new policies or changes in policy, and when applicable, provide additional education to vendors in violation of program policies. It is performed by either WIC local clinic or state office vendor staff. Vendors may request additional training or technical assistance from local or state WIC vendor staff. Training may take place on-site at the store or in a location designated by the Wyoming WIC Program. Vendor requested training is subject to staff availability.
Training requirements
• Training is required for authorization/reauthorization.
• Training may occur at the request of store management, mandatory training, or at the discretion of the vendor monitor. Vendors agree to be accountable for all actions of employees involved in WIC transactions/handling of WIC cards, and to properly train all employees.
• Annual training may be provided in several forms, including: an email/newsletter, conference call, video meeting and/or on-site training.
• Vendors who fail to attend reauthorization training will not be authorized for the new contract period and will need to reapply for authorization. Annual and authorization/reauthorization training must cover:
o the purpose of the WIC Program
o WIC approved foods
o minimum stocking requirements
o requirement to purchase infant formula from the approved list
o procedures for transacting and redeeming WIC benefits
o program violations and sanctions
o the complaint process
o claims procedures
o incentive items policy
Page 25 of 37
o changes to program requirements since the last training
• The Store Manager/Director is required to attend any WIC training, along with a front end manager. Any additional staff can attend.
• Vendors are notified in writing if they are violating WIC policies and procedures. They will also be informed of recommendations for corrective action and their appeal rights.
REPORT PARTICIPANT MISUSE
Vendors should contact their designated local vendor monitor with questions or to resolve problems. The local vendor monitor is the first point of contact and will work with individual vendors to provide training, monitoring, or participant follow-up when needed. WIC customers are entitled to the same service and courtesies as non-WIC customers.
Your cooperation in reporting attempted Wyoming WIC Program violations/fraud will be appreciated.
Participants sign a WIC Rights and Responsibilities form that states:
DISQUALIFICATION/SUSPENSION/PROSECUTION/CASH RECOVERY MAY OCCUR FOR:
a. Misuse of WIC benefits such as exchanging/selling, intending to sell, or give away the WYO W.E.S.T. card or food items purchased with WIC benefits verbally, in print, or online through websites such as Craigslist/Facebook/Twitter/eBay/etc. for cash, credit, or non-food items
b. Purchasing/receiving and keeping more WIC foods than authorized or foods not on the WIC Food Shopping Guide
c. Physical abuse, threat of physical abuse, or verbal abuse to WIC or grocery store staff
d. Using a card reported as lost or stolen
e. Receiving and redeeming WIC food benefits from more than one WIC clinic in the same month
If you wish to make a complaint about a WIC customer who is rude or you suspect is misusing the Wyoming WIC Program, complete the Vendor Comment Form (Appendix 7), email [email protected], or call your local WIC agency. All reports of abuse and/or complaints should be made within three days after the incident. Be as specific as possible, making sure to record the names (if known), PAN (last 4 digits of the WYO W.E.S.T. card), and the details of the incident (time, date, physical description, words exchanged, names of staff who witnessed the incident, etc.). The complaint will be discussed with the participant and appropriate actions/sanctions taken. Copies of all store transaction receipts are helpful.
VENDOR VIOLATIONS AND SANCTIONS
Failure to read and understand the violations below, does not excuse the vendor from WIC Program sanctions or penalties. Vendors are responsible for the acts or omissions of their employees transacting WIC-related business.
If the Wyoming WIC Program finds that a vendor has committed a violation that requires a pattern of occurrences in order to impose a penalty of sanction, the Wyoming WIC Program will notify the vendor of the initial violation in writing, prior to documentation of another violation, unless the Wyoming WIC Program determines, in its discretion, on a case-by-case basis, that notifying the vendor would compromise an investigation. The following are mandatory vendor sanctions.
Mandatory Vendor Sanctions
1. Permanent Disqualification: a. Vendors convicted in court for the crime of trafficking in food instruments (WYO W.E.S.T. card benefits),
or selling firearms, ammunition, explosives, or controlled substances (as defined in Section 102 of the

The total amount of CMPs imposed for violations investigated, as part of a single investigation, shall not exceed sixty two thousand seven hundred sixty seven dollars ($62,767). If a Vendor fails to comply with the terms of a CMP, the Vendor shall be disqualified for the length of time corresponding to the sanction.

WIC/SNAP DISQUALIFICATION
• Vendors disqualified or assessed a CMP by the Wyoming WIC Program may be disqualified from SNAP for an equal period to time. SNAP disqualification, as a result of disqualification from the Wyoming WIC Program, is not subject to administrative or judicial review in SNAP.

• The reciprocal Wyoming WIC Program disqualification will be for the same length of time as the SNAP disqualification. However, the period of disqualification may begin at the same time or a later date than the SNAP/WIC disqualification.
• Prior to disqualifying a vendor for a SNAP disqualification, the Wyoming WIC Program will determine if disqualification of the vendor would result in inadequate participant access. If the Wyoming WIC Program determines that disqualification of the vendor would result in inadequate participant access, the Wyoming WIC Program will impose a CMP in lieu of disqualification. The Wyoming WIC Program cannot impose a CMP in lieu of disqualification for a third or subsequent sanctions.
• Reciprocal disqualifications are not subject to Administrative Appeal in the Wyoming WIC Program.

Often when an error appears on the
card reader, there is nothing wrong
with the card, it may actually be an
issue with the store system. Please
attempt to help the WIC customer. If
WIC customers are turned away for an
issue that is not card related, they risk losing an entire
month of benefits, since many WIC clinics are only open
limited days/hours.
NOTE: If you are seeing the same issue occur multiple times with different WIC customers, ask for a manager’s assistance. You can attempt to use the training card to see if the issue is with the WIC customer’s card or you can contact your technical support to assist you in getting your system to process a WIC transaction.
If the card reader displays one of the messages in blue
below, please try the suggestions listed before turning the
WIC customer away.
Card Error Return to Clinic or Invalid/Damaged Card
1. Cancel the WIC transaction. Attempt to re-tender
WIC. Have the WIC customer wipe/clean the chip on
the card before they reinsert the card.
2. If the above does not work, suspend the transaction
and try a different lane. Please assist the WIC
customer in changing lanes. Before re-attempting the
WIC transaction, see if a Balance Inquiry receipt will
print with the WIC customer’s card.
If the Balance Inquiry works, please attempt the
transaction again.
If the Balance Inquiry does not work, please
advise them to contact their local WIC clinic.
Updated 05/2021
This institution is an equal opportunity provider.
System Freezes During a Transaction
If the system freezes during a transaction and you are not
sure if benefits were removed from the WIC customer’s
card, do the following:
1. Attempt a Balance Inquiry.
2. Compare the Beginning Balance receipt from the
previous transaction in question to the new Beginning
Balance receipt from the Balance Inquiry.
If the receipt quantities are identical, the WIC
food was not removed from the card and you will
need to re-tender WIC.
If the receipt quantities are different, the food
was removed from the card. Do NOT re-tender
WIC.
NOTE: The WIC customer must be allowed to leave the store with any foods that were removed from their card. They should not be expected to pay for their WIC foods when the WIC transaction is not successful.
No Current WIC
Suspend the transaction. Attempt to do a Balance Inquiry
in the current lane or in another lane. A Beginning Balance
receipt should print and it will show if the WIC customer
has current month benefits.
If the WIC customer does have current month
benefits, please try the transaction again or assist
the WIC customer with moving to another lane
where the transaction should work.
If the WIC customer does not
have current month benefits,
please advise them to
contact their local WIC clinic.

ATTACHMENT A STATEMENT OF WORK-VENDOR
This document is a Statement of Work (SOW) to identify the responsibilities of the Vendor.
Responsibilities of the Vendor include:
1. Demonstrate its capability to accept Women, Infants and Children (WIC) benefits electronically prior to authorization, and comply with WIC Electronic Benefit Transfer (EBT) operating rules, standards and technical requirements. If a Vendor is necessary for participant access and cannot accept WIC benefits electronically, the Agency may provide the Vendor with a stand beside Point of Sale (POS) system.
2. Comply with procedures and responsibilities set forth in the Wyoming WIC Vendor Manual (Vendor Manual), all regulations including, but not limited to, 7 CFR § 246.12, 19-21, and all reasonable requests from the Agency. The Vendor Manual is incorporated into this Agreement by this reference. The Vendor’s failure to comply with benefit redemption procedures outlined in the Vendor Manual may result in the Agency’s refusal to pay for participant/parent/ caretaker/proxy WIC redemptions.
3. Stock and maintain a supply of at least the minimum varieties of authorized foods as identified in the Vendor Manual and subsequent written communications from the Agency throughout the agreement period. Failure to do so may result in termination from the Agency.
4. Have more than fifty percent (50%) designated shelf space for non-WIC edible food items, and non-WIC food transactions must be more than fifty percent (50%) of total edible food sales.
5. Maintain a minimum of eight (8) hours of operation daily, six (6) days a week. 6. Purchase and sell only infant formula that has been purchased directly from food
wholesalers, distributors and retailers currently licensed in the State in accordance with state laws and regulations, or food manufacturers registered with the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (USDA). A list of approved wholesalers/distributors, retailers and manufacturers is maintained by the Agency and is available upon request.
7. Provide sanitary and safe storage conditions and first quality merchandise. The Vendor cannot stock or sell out-of-date WIC commodities to WIC participants (i.e., past the product’s expiration, “best if used by”, “sell by”, “use by” and any other date limiting the sale or use of the food item).
8. Provide WIC supplemental foods at or below the current price charged to other customers. These prices must also be competitive within each Vendor’s assigned peer group and at or below the maximum allowable reimbursement levels. Vendors will be assigned to peer groups based on criteria determined by the Agency as listed in the Vendor Manual (a new Vendor’s peer group assignment will be evaluated within six (6) months to ensure proper placement and competitive price levels). Shelf prices shall be plainly marked. Failure to do so may result in termination from the Agency.
9. Not charge sales tax on purchases made with Wyoming WIC EBT System Today (WYO W.E.S.T.) cards.
10. Not ask the WIC participant/parent/caretaker/proxy to pay cash for the sales tax amount that is applied to manufacturer’s coupons, but instead shall subtract the sales tax on the
Attachment A to the Agreement between Wyoming Department of Health, Public Health Division
and Template – Vendor Not Specified
Page 2 of 7
coupon from the face value of the coupon and then shall subtract the remaining value of the coupon from the retail price of the WIC food(s). 7 CFR § 246.12(h)(3)(vii).
11. Maintain an average of more than one hundred dollars ($100.00) in WIC sales or ten (10) or more participants purchasing WIC benefits at this Vendor per month. Pharmacies are exempt.
12. Allow the participant/parent/caretaker/proxy to purchase only those WIC approved foods listed on the participant’s benefit balance receipt and the Wyoming WIC Authorized Product List. Provide only the approved foods in authorized quantities and size specified. The participant/parent/caretaker/proxy does not have to purchase all the foods listed on the benefit balance receipt, but may not purchase more than what is listed.
13. Accept only WYO W.E.S.T. cards for WIC purchases within the benefit time period authorized.
14. Not charge participants/parents/caretakers/proxies for authorized supplemental foods obtained with the WYO W.E.S.T. card. In addition, the Vendor may not seek restitution from participants/parents/caretakers or proxies for WIC supplemental foods purchased in a WYO W.E.S.T. transaction that were not paid for or only partially paid for by the Agency. The Agency is not obligated to pay for improperly handled or voided Electronic Benefit Transfer (EBT) transactions. 7 CFR § 246.12(h)(3)(x).
15. Disallow credits, rain checks, cash, unauthorized foods or non-food items, WIC food substitutions or substitutions of other items of value for WIC benefits redeemed. None of these items may be offered in exchange for WIC purchased foods being returned.
16. Not provide refunds or permit exchanges for authorized supplemental foods obtained with WYO W.E.S.T. card benefits, except for exchanges of an identical authorized supplemental food item when the original authorized supplemental food item is defective, spoiled, or has exceeded its “sell by,” “best if used by” or other date limiting the sale or use of the food item. An identical authorized supplemental food item means the exact brand and size as the original authorized supplemental food item obtained and returned by the participant/parent/caretaker/proxy. 7 CFR § 246.12(h)(3)(ii).
17. Not allow cash change to a WIC customer for purchases less than the total value of the cash value benefit (CVB) for fresh fruits and vegetables. 7 CFR § 246.12 (h)(3)(x).
18. Reimburse the Agency for claims submitted for payments already made by the Agency for charges of more than the actual purchase of the supplemental foods. The Agency may make price adjustments to the purchase price on WIC transactions submitted by the Vendor for redemption to ensure compliance with the price limitations applicable to the Vendor. When the Agency determines the Vendor has committed a Vendor violation that affects the payment to the Vendor, the Agency will delay payment or establish a claim. The Vendor must submit payment for the claim or an adequate justification for the excessive charge to the Agency within (30) days of written notification. The Agency may offset the claim against current and subsequent amounts to be paid to the Vendor. In addition to denying payment or assessing a claim, the Agency may sanction the Vendor for Vendor overcharges or other errors in accordance with the Agency’s sanction schedule. 7 CFR § 246.12(h)(3)(viii)(ix).
19. Submit requested price surveys by the specified date. 20. Give the same courtesies and discounts to WIC participants/parents/caretakers/proxies as
to other customers. 7 CFR § 246.12(h)(3)(iii). This includes all store promotions, i.e., Coupons, “Buy-One-Get-One-Free”, “Two-for-One”, Discount/Club Cards, etc. Any
Attachment A to the Agreement between Wyoming Department of Health, Public Health Division
and Template – Vendor Not Specified
Page 3 of 7
Vendor who knowingly refuses to provide a promotion or discount to a WIC customer shall be in violation of this Vendor Agreement (Agreement) and may be sanctioned for discrimination.
21. Comply with the provisions of the Department of Agriculture Regulations (7 CFR Parts 15, 15a and 15b) in that a person will not be discriminated against because of race, color, national origin, age, sex, or disability.
22. Deny service to WIC participants/parents/caretakers/proxies only for the following: A. Verbal abuse, physical abuse, or threat of physical abuse to Vendor’s staff; B. Theft or attempted theft of Vendor’s items; C. Abuse of the Supplemental Nutrition Assistance Program (SNAP/Food Stamp
Program). If service is denied for the above reasons, all non-WIC purchases must also be denied.
23. Require at least one (1) representative attend required training (annually, or more often as needed) on the Agency policies and procedures. Representatives attending the training will be required to train all other managers and employees. The Agency will have sole discretion to designate the date, time, and location of all interactive training, except that the Agency will provide the Vendor with at least one alternative date on which to attend such training. 7 CFR § 246.12(h)(3)(xi)(xiii). The Vendor is required to complete or attend mandatory training sessions as noted:
A. Prior to or at the time of a Vendor’s initial WIC authorization; B. Any Vendor accumulating five (5) or more sanction points. The Agency shall
designate the audience (i.e., managers, cashiers, etc.) to which the training is directed;
C. Any state mandated training. The Vendor shall ensure that all cashiers are trained in proper acceptance and processing of the WYO W.E.S.T. card.
24. Be accountable for its owners, officers, managers, agents and employees who commit Vendor violations. 7 CFR § 246.12 (h)(3)(xiii).
25. Provide the Agency thirty (30) days advance written notification of any change in Vendor ownership, store location, or cessation of operations. Change in ownership and cessation of operations terminates the Agreement and the Vendor will need to reapply as a new applicant. The Agency, at its sole discretion, may permit a change in location over a short distance without terminating the Agreement or determine if a change in business structure constitutes a change in ownership. 7 CFR § 246.12(h)(3)(xvii).
26. Notify the Agency of any change in its SNAP authorization. If a new SNAP number is given to the Vendor, the Vendor must reapply to the Agency.
27. Provide the following information upon request by the Agency: A. Monthly, quarterly, or annual total volume of business; B. Monthly or annual gross edible food sales (food sales from foods eligible for
purchase with SNAP benefits); C. Records of WIC foods purchased for a set period of time (sixty (60) days minimum)
such as invoices/receipts (documenting the Vendor’s purchase of WIC food items from manufacturers, wholesalers, distributors, retailers or any other points of purchase) and electronic journals or transaction logs;
Attachment A to the Agreement between Wyoming Department of Health, Public Health Division
and Template – Vendor Not Specified
Page 4 of 7
D. Any additional inventory records used by the Vendor, including sales or tax records used for federal or state tax purposes, bank deposits, inventory/shelf price records of WIC food items, SNAP sales volume and other business related records the Agency may require for the current Agreement period or a minimum of three (3) years.
The Agency may request specific records to validate this information at any time during the Agreement period. The Vendor is responsible for the validity of this information and sanctions may be assigned if this declaration is proven inaccurate or records cannot be produced. All electronic journals and transaction logs for WYO W.E.S.T. transactions and all program related records must be made available to representatives of the Agency, the Department of Agriculture and Comptroller General of the United States, at any reasonable time and place for inspection and audit. 7 CFR § 246.12(j)(4)(i)(ii) and (h)(3)(xv).
28. Permit WIC authorized personnel to monitor the Vendor (on-site) for compliance with WIC rules and regulations, i.e., conducting compliance buys. The Vendor agrees to permit interviews with cashiers of the WIC Vendor monitor’s choice and access to shelf price records, if available. A WIC authorized Vendor may be selected to be investigated at random or based on specific monitoring, complaints or redemption analysis findings.
29. Maintain a professional relationship with the Agency’s local and state personnel in fulfilling their responsibilities which involve the Vendor.
30. Not be employed by, or have a spouse, child, parent, or a sibling employed by the local WIC agency providing service in the county in which the Vendor is located. For purposes of the preceding sentence, the term “Vendor” means a sole proprietorship, partnership, cooperative association, corporation or other business entity, and any person who owns or controls more than a ten percent (10%) interest in the partnership, corporation or other business entity. 7 CFR § 246.12(h)(3)(xix).
31. Remain in compliance with the selection criteria as stated in the Vendor Manual, including any changes to the criteria. The Agency may re-assess the Vendor any time during the Agreement period. If the Vendor fails to meet the criteria at any time during the Agreement period, the Vendor may be removed from the Agency for administrative non-compliance with these criteria. The Vendor has thirty (30) days after being given a written notification in which to correct any failure to meet these criteria before removal from the Agency. If the Vendor has been removed from the Agency because of administrative non-compliance for more than thirty (30) days and wishes to re-apply to the Agency, the Vendor will be subject to the selection criteria. 7 CFR § 246.12(h)(3)(xxiv).
32. Maintain the Agency’s certified in-store Electronic Cash Register (ECR) system in a manner necessary to ensure system availability for WIC EBT redemption processing during all hours the Vendor is open. The Vendor agrees that its ECR system shall transact cash value for authorized fruits and vegetables. Execution of this Agreement is conditioned on the Vendor maintaining its state certified in-store ECR system that accommodates cash value. After execution of this Agreement, the Vendor’s failure to maintain a state-certified ECR system on an on-going basis that ensures system compliance with WIC policies and procedures, transacts cash value, or ensures the accuracy of data, shall result in termination of the Agreement.
33. Have a current, paid maintenance agreement in place with their system dealer/technical support personnel. Failure to do so will result in termination of the Agreement.
Attachment A to the Agreement between Wyoming Department of Health, Public Health Division
and Template – Vendor Not Specified
Page 5 of 7
34. Ensure the certified in-store EBT redemption process allows a reasonable degree of security for protecting the Personal Identification Numbers (PIN) used by WIC participants. Only the WIC participant may enter the PIN to initiate the transaction. The Vendor must not enter the PIN for the WIC participant.
35. Provide necessary receipts for the WIC participant to accept/approve or reject the WIC transaction. Vendor personnel shall NOT accept/approve or reject/cancel the WIC transaction for the WIC participant.
36. Release the food benefits to the WIC participant any time the WYO W.E.S.T. card is decremented, even if the system fails to build a Claim file or include the transaction in the Claim file.
37. Scan or manually enter Universal Product Code/Price Look Up (UPC/PLU) codes only for WIC authorized items being redeemed. Never scan codes from UPC/PLU codebooks, reference sheets or from any product not actually purchased with the WYO W.E.S.T. card.
38. Request state recertification of the Vendor’s in-store ECR system if Vendor alters/revises the system in any manner that impacts the WIC EBT redemption/claims processing after initial certification is completed. In the event an in-store ECR system is reconfigured or modified by the Vendor or other parties in such a way that the ECR system no longer exhibits the required system accuracy, integrity, or performance required and under which requirements the ECR system was certified, the Agency will not accept a Claim file from the system. The Vendor is liable for the costs of all recertification events needed to return the ECR system covered by this Agreement to full compliance with the Agency’s system requirements. Failure to seek recertification when the Vendor’s ECR system is altered/revised shall subject the Vendor to financial liabilities or disqualification.
39. Connect the Vendor’s ECR system to the State’s WIC EBT System at least once each forty eight (48) hour period for the purpose of claim submission and downloading of the current Hot Card List file, Error file, Auto-Reconciliation (settlement) file, and the WIC Authorized Product “UPC/PLU” List file.
40. Accept financial liability for WIC EBT benefit redemptions resulting from hot card transactions if the Vendor has NOT connected to the Agency’s EBT System within a contiguous forty eight (48) hour period of time and updated the Hot Card List file information.
41. Accept financial liability for a WIC EBT transaction submitted for payment sixty (60) days after the date of the transaction.
42. Comply with the Agency’s policies for creating and updating the in-store UPC/PLU category/subcategory table of WIC authorized foods. Failure to comply shall result in the Vendor’s financial liability for WIC EBT sales transactions involving invalid or unauthorized UPC/PLU codes.
43. Adhere to the International Federation for Produce Standards (IFPS) for product look-up codes (PLU) for the purpose of WIC EBT claim submission. Any fruit/vegetable UPC/PLU reserved for store use must map back to an International Standard PLU for the same produce in the WIC EBT Product List.
44. Reimburse the Agency pro-rata for WIC EBT system costs, if applicable, if the Vendor is disqualified, terminated, or closed.
45. Notify the Agency of any change in bank routing or account number seven (7) business days prior to the effective date of the change.
Attachment A to the Agreement between Wyoming Department of Health, Public Health Division
and Template – Vendor Not Specified
Page 6 of 7
46. Maintain strict confidentiality of all client and system data (EBT production keys and secret codes covered by this Agreement, as well as, their corporate offices/ECR suppliers.) No information may be provided to any non-party person or entity without the prior written approval of the Agency.
47. Not use, reproduce or apply any stickers, tags, channel strips, shelf talkers, labels or signage that have the WIC acronym or logo on WIC-approved products except those provided or approved by the Agency. The Vendor agrees not to use any aspect of the WIC acronym or logo, or close facsimiles in the name of the Vendor, Vendor advertising, promotional material, or incentives. The WIC® logo and acronym are registered trademarks of the United States Department of Agriculture. WIC Vendor compliance with the policies regarding the use of the WIC acronym and logo will be evaluated at the initial on-site authorization visit, any other on-site visit regardless of the reason, during educational or compliance purchase visits and by any other objective means.
48. Not treat WIC participants differently by offering them incentive items that are not offered to non-WIC customers.
49. Point of Sale (POS) terminals used to support the Program, whether single-function equipment or multi-function equipment, shall be deployed in accordance with the minimum lane coverage provision of 7CFR § 246.12(z)(2).
A. Superstores and supermarkets - There will be one POS terminal for every eleven thousand dollars ($11,000.00) in monthly WIC redemption up to a total of four POS terminals, or the number of lanes in the location, whichever is less.
B. All other Vendors - One POS terminal for every eight thousand dollars ($8,000.00) in monthly redemption up to a total of four POS terminals, or the number of lanes in the location; whichever is less.
50. Failure to comply with the terms of this Agreement, federal and state statutes, regulations, and policies and procedures governing the Program, including any changes made during the agreement period, may result in a warning, mandatory training, fines or disqualification from the Program, according to the type of violation as defined in this Agreement and in the Vendor Manual. The Vendor has the right to appeal disqualification as defined in the Vendor Manual. The Vendor is not entitled to receive any compensation for revenues lost as a result of permanent disqualification. Vendors are responsible for ensuring that owners, managers, employees or agents acting on behalf of the Vendor comply with all of the requirements of this Agreement, Vendor Manual, and WIC Vendor policies governing and regulating the Program. 7 CFR § 246.12(h)(3)(xxii).
51. This Agreement does not constitute a license or a property interest. If the Vendor wishes to continue to be authorized beyond the period of its current Agreement, the Vendor must re-apply for authorization. If a Vendor is disqualified, the Program shall terminate the Agreement, and the Vendor will have to re-apply in order to be authorized after the disqualification period is over. The Vendor’s new application shall be subject to the Program’s selection criteria at the time of re-application. 7 CFR § 246.12(h)(3)(xxi).
52. The provision of sanctions for Program abuse to be imposed on the Vendor shall not be construed as excluding or replacing any criminal or civil sanctions or other remedies that may be applicable under any federal, state or local ordinance. A Vendor who commits fraud or abuse of the Program is liable for prosecution under applicable federal, state or
Attachment A to the Agreement between Wyoming Department of Health, Public Health Division
and Template – Vendor Not Specified
Page 7 of 7
local laws. Under 7 CFR Section 246.12(h)(3)(xx) of the Program regulations, those who have willfully misapplied, stolen or fraudulently obtained WIC funds shall be subject to a fine of not more than twenty-five thousand dollars ($25,000.00) or imprisonment of not more than five (5) years, or both, if the value of the funds is one hundred dollars ($100.00) or more. If the value is less than one hundred dollars ($100.00), the penalties are a fine of not more than one thousand dollars ($1,000.00) or imprisonment for not more than one (1) year or both.
53. A Vendor’s failure to remain price competitive is cause for termination of the Agreement, even if actual payments to the Vendor are within the maximum reimbursement amount. 7 CFR § 246.12 (h)(3)(vii).

ATTACHMENT B STATEMENT OF WORK-AGENCY
This document is a Statement of Work (SOW) to identify the responsibilities of the Agency.
Responsibilities of the Agency include:
1. Pay the Vendor within sixty (60) days of receipt for all valid WIC Electronic Benefit Transfer (WIC EBT) transactions properly submitted to the Agency. WIC EBT transactions may be deemed invalid for payment or, if paid, future payments may be offset for any of the following reasons:
A. The Vendor does not successfully transmit the Claim file to the Agency EBT Processing System within forty eight (48) hours of the earliest transactions contained in the Claim file unless the Agency’s WIC EBT Processing System was not functional during this period. The Vendor may request an extension in case the Vendor is unable to comply based upon unforeseeable circumstances (i.e., computer system failure). Transactions will not be paid if submitted sixty (60) days after the date of the transaction;
B. The Vendor processes a transaction for a WYO W.E.S.T. card that was on the Agency’s WIC “Hot Card” List file for more than forty-eight (48) hours;
C. Transaction data appears to be forged or altered; D. The transaction electronic signature is incorrect, incomplete, or missing; E. The Vendor accepted the transaction while disqualified or terminated from the
Agency or did not have a fully executed/valid WIC Vendor Agreement; F. Unauthorized foods or unauthorized brands or unauthorized quantities of foods
have been purchased in a WIC EBT transaction. This includes, but is not limited to, items purchased by a WIC participant before the effective date or after the expiration date of the UPC in the Agency’s WIC Authorized Product “UPC/PLU” List during a WIC transaction;
G. The price of the food item within a transaction exceeds the UPC maximum price designated by the Agency for that food item and quantity, or exceeds the Vendor’s customary selling price for the food issued;
H. The transaction includes UPCs/dollar amounts for foods not received by the WIC participant.
2. Take follow-up action within one hundred twenty (120) days of detecting any questionable food instruments, suspected Vendor overcharges, and other errors.
3. Accept the batch transmission of WIC EBT transactions through public internet access to the WIC Program’s EBT System.
4. Make available to the Vendor’s ECR system the Program’s Authorized Product UPC/PLU List file, the Hot Card List file, and Auto-Reconciliation or Acknowledgment files for previously submitted Claim files.
5. Provide training in WIC procedures and authorized foods, and follow-up on complaints received by WIC Vendors or participants/parents/caretakers/proxies on request and as necessary.
Attachment B to the Agreement between Wyoming Department of Health, Public Health Division
and Template – Vendor Not Specified
Page 2 of 3
6. Provide regular monitoring (including on-site monitoring) for compliance with written reports that include Vendor activity.
7. Maintain a professional relationship with Vendor personnel in fulfilling their responsibilities.
8. Ensure that no conflict of interest exists, as defined by applicable state laws, regulations, and policies, between the Agency and any Vendor under its jurisdiction. If the Agency determines that a conflict of interest exists between the Vendor and the Agency, at either the state or local level, this Agreement will be terminated.
9. Restrict the use or disclosure of confidential Vendor information; except for Vendor name, address, telephone number, Web site/e-mail address, store type and authorization status to:
A. Persons directly connected with the administration or enforcement of WIC Program and SNAP violations under federal, state, or local law;
B. Persons directly connected with the administration or enforcement of any federal or state law, provided a written agreement is signed that covers re-disclosure;
C. A Vendor that is subject to adverse action, provided the confidential information concerns the Vendor subject to the action;
D. U.S. Department of Agriculture (USDA) and the Comptroller General of the United States.
Restrict the use or disclosure of SNAP retailer information obtained from the SNAP to: A. Persons directly connected with the administration or enforcement of the WIC
Program; B. USDA and the Comptroller General of the United States.
10. Not pay for ongoing maintenance, processing fees or operational costs for Vendor systems and equipment used to support WIC EBT, unless the equipment is used solely for the Agency or the Agency determines the Vendor using multi-function equipment is necessary for participant access. Costs shared by the Agency will be proportional to the usage for the Agency.
11. The maximum allowable reimbursement amount of any transaction submitted for payment shall not exceed the average cost plus a percentage for that food item in accordance to the assigned peer group of the Vendor. The Program cannot pay a Vendor at a level that would otherwise make the Vendor ineligible for authorization.
12. The WIC Program may disqualify a Vendor or impose a Civil Money Penalty (CMP) in lieu of disqualification for reasons of Program abuse. If the Program finds that a Vendor has committed a violation that requires a pattern of occurrences in order to impose a penalty of sanction, the Program will notify the Vendor of the initial violation in writing, prior to documentation of another violation, unless the Program determines, in its discretion, on a case-by-case basis, that notifying the Vendor would compromise an investigation. Vendors will be given at least a thirty (30) day written notice before imposing sanctions and the opportunity to appeal the adverse action within thirty (30) days of the notification except for permanent disqualification, in which case the Program must take immediate action. 7 CFR § 246.12(l)(1)(i) and 246.12(l)(3).
13. The WIC Program shall disqualify a Vendor who has been disqualified from SNAP, unless inadequate participant/parent/caretaker/proxy access is determined. If the WIC Program determines that disqualification of the Vendor would result in inadequate participant
Attachment B to the Agreement between Wyoming Department of Health, Public Health Division
and Template – Vendor Not Specified
Page 3 of 3
access, the WIC Program must impose a CMP in lieu of disqualification. 7 CFR § 246.12(l)(1)(vii.
14. The WIC Program has the option to disqualify a Vendor against whom the SNAP has assessed a CMP in lieu of disqualification due to participant/parent/caretaker/proxy hardship. A SNAP participant/parent/caretaker/ proxy hardship determination does not obligate the WIC Program to conclude that the disqualification would result in inadequate WIC participant/parent/caretaker/proxy access. In this case, a Vendor shall be given appeal rights. However, neither the SNAP decision to impose a CMP, nor the WIC Program determination on participant/parent/caretaker/proxy access are subject to review. The areas subject to review include:
A. Whether the Vendor was assessed a CMP in lieu of disqualification by the SNAP; B. Whether the SNAP CMP was imposed due to a participant/parent/caretaker/proxy
hardship; C. If the Agreement included the required notice that the Vendor was potentially
subject to a WIC disqualification based on a SNAP CMP. 7 CFR § 246.12(l)(2)(ii). If inadequate participant access is determined, then the Program shall continue the Vendor’s authorization, determine the Vendor to be high-risk for the length of the SNAP disqualification and monitor accordingly.
15. The WIC Program shall disqualify a Vendor who has been disqualified from or assessed a CMP in lieu of disqualification by another WIC state agency for a mandatory Vendor sanction unless inadequate participant/parent/caretaker/proxy access is determined. The length of the disqualification must be for the same length of time as the disqualification by the other WIC state agency or, in the case of a CMP in lieu of disqualification assessed by the other WIC state agency, for the same length of time for which the Vendor would otherwise have been disqualified. The disqualification may begin at a later date than the sanction imposed by the other WIC state agency. If the WIC Program determines that disqualification of the Vendor would result in inadequate participant access, the WIC Program must impose a CMP in lieu of disqualification, except that the WIC Program may not impose a CMP in situations in which the Vendor has been assessed a CMP in lieu of disqualification by the other WIC state agency. 7 CFR § 246.12(l)(2)(iii).

ATTACHMENT C VIOLATIONS AND SANCTIONS
If the Agency finds that a Vendor has committed a violation that requires a pattern of occurrences in order to impose a penalty of sanction, the Agency will notify the Vendor of the initial violation in writing, prior to documentation of another violation, unless the Agency determines, in its discretion, on a case-by-case basis, that notifying the Vendor would compromise an investigation.
1. MANDATORY VENDOR SANCTIONS.
A. Permanent Disqualification: i. Vendors convicted in court for the crime of trafficking in food instruments (WYO
W.E.S.T. card benefits), or selling firearms, ammunition, explosives, or controlled substances (as defined in Section 102 of the Controlled Substances Act, 21 U.S.C. § 802) in exchange for WIC food instruments (WYO W.E.S.T. card benefits) shall be permanently disqualified, effective on the date of the receipt of the notice of disqualification. Convicted Vendors shall not be entitled to receive any compensation for revenues lost as a result of such violation or as a result of a disqualification which is later overturned;
ii. Permanent disqualification from SNAP. B. Six (6) Year Disqualification:

iii. A pattern of charging participants/parents/caretakers/proxies more for supplemental food than non-WIC customers or charging participants/parents/caretakers/proxies more than the current shelf or contract price;
iv. A pattern of receiving, transacting or redeeming food instruments (WYO W.E.S.T. card benefits) outside of authorized channels, including the use of an unauthorized Vendor or an unauthorized person;
v. A pattern of charging for supplemental food not received by the participant/parent/caretaker/proxy;
Attachment C to the Agreement between Wyoming Department of Health, Public Health Division
and Template – Vendor Not Specified
Page 2 of 6
vi. A pattern of providing credit or non-food items, other than alcohol, alcoholic beverages, tobacco products, cash, firearms, ammunition, explosives, or controlled substances as defined in 21 U.S.C. § 802, in exchange for food instruments (WYO W.E.S.T. card benefits).
D. One (1) Year Disqualification: The Agency shall disqualify a Vendor for one (1) year for a pattern of providing unauthorized food items in exchange for food instruments (WYO W.E.S.T. card benefits), including charging for supplemental food provided in excess of those listed on the food instrument (EBT receipt).
E. Second Mandatory Sanction: A Vendor who has been previously assessed a mandatory sanction for any of the mandatory sanctions listed above (numbers 2-4) shall have the second sanction doubled. Civil Money Penalty (CMP) may only be doubled up to the limits allowed, as defined by this Agreement.
F. Third or Subsequent Mandatory Sanction: Vendors assessed a third mandatory sanction shall receive a double sanction with no CMP option.
G. A WIC disqualification based on a SNAP disqualification shall be for the same length of time and may begin at a later date and is not subject to administrative or judicial review under the Agency. 7 CFR § 246.12(l)(1)(vii).
H. The Agency shall not accept from any Vendor voluntary withdrawal or non-renewal as an alternative to imposing mandatory sanctions or disqualification. 7 CFR § 246.12(l)(1)(viii).
I. The Agency shall disqualify the Vendor based on the mandatory sanctions with the following exceptions: i. Cases of inadequate participant/parent/caretaker/proxy access in which case a CMP
would be assessed; ii. The Vendor had, at the time of the violation, an effective policy and training
program in effect to prevent trafficking; and the ownership of the Vendor was not aware of, did not approve of, and was not involved in the conduct of the violation. (This exception is only an option for the trafficking conviction.) Any documented policies must have been dated in written form and the training documented prior to the violation in which case a CMP would be assessed. The Agency shall not give a CMP for a third or subsequent mandatory sanction. 7 CFR § 246.12(l)(1)(i).
2. ESTABLISHED VIOLATIONS AND SANCTIONS.
A. The Agency shall disqualify a Vendor for multiple violations subject to Agency sanctions during a single investigation, based on the most serious violation. All violations shall be included in the notice of administrative action. If a mandatory sanction is not upheld, the Agency may impose Agency established sanction. 7 CFR § 246.12(l)(1)(xii).
B. The following Agency established sanctions may be added within an investigation or doubled, provided the total disqualification period does not exceed one (1) year per investigation or CMPs do not exceed the maximum amount of fifteen thousand six hundred ninety two dollars ($15,692) for each violation. The CMP calculation and
Attachment C to the Agreement between Wyoming Department of Health, Public Health Division
and Template – Vendor Not Specified
Page 3 of 6
collection will be the same for both mandatory and state disqualifications. The total amount of CMPs imposed for violations investigated, as part of a single investigation, shall not exceed sixty two thousand seven hundred sixty seven dollars ($62,767). If a Vendor fails to comply with the terms of a CMP, the Vendor shall be disqualified for the length of time corresponding to the sanction. The Agency sanction may not be added to a mandatory sanction within the same investigation. However, an Agency sanction may be imposed from the same investigation in situations where the mandatory sanctions are not upheld on appeal. 7 CFR § 246.12(l)(2)(i).
C. All Agency authorized Vendors shall be assessed, on an on-going basis, for possible Agency established violations and sanctions. All points are cumulative and will be kept current for a period of one (1) year as long as the Vendor is authorized on the program. Points accrued for each violation will be erased one year after the date of the violation regardless of a renewal of a Vendor Agreement.
3. STATE VIOLATIONS AND SANCTIONS.
The following are the state established Vendor violations and sanction points to be assessed to the Vendor. TABLE B-1
