1286 (07/2026) Chapter 8: Examples • Chapter 8: Examples OSIPM Example 1: An individual provides the necessary documentation from an ODHS|OHA approved medical authority and from a licensed dietitian showing that they need an increased amount of high-quality protein, in this case the dietitian states they need 8oz of lean chicken breast a day and can no longer receive their protein from 6oz of ground beef a day, which they are currently purchasing for $25 a month, verified by receipt. The individual provides a recent receipt from their local grocer showing chicken breast is $4/lb and the individual states they will need $60.20 a month for the chicken breast. Because the individual will no longer be spending $25 a month on ground beef, the worker subtracts this from the amount needed and issues a Special Diet Allowance of $35.20. $4/lb ÷ 16oz in a pound = $0.25 per oz. $0.25 per oz. x 8oz a day = $2 a day $2 x 7days = $14 a week $14 x 4.3 = $60.20 a month $60.20 - $25.00 = $35.20 special diet allowance Chapter 3, Processes and procedures Section 1: Periodic Report, SNAP only Due month = The month the PR was sent.
