OBJECTIVE
To determine the availability of pharmacist prescribing of hormonal contraception in rural areas of two states.
STUDY DESIGN
Cross-sectional survey.
RESULTS
Overall, 42% of pharmacies prescribed contraception (Oregon: 46% and New Mexico 19%). A similar proportion of rural pharmacies reported offering pharmacist prescription of 37 contraception as urban locations (39% vs 46%, p = 0.26). Nearly 53% of rural and 45% of urban pharmacies report billing women, rather than insurance, directly for the cost of the pharmacist consultation. Over 80% of pharmacists in both rural and urban locations did not know if Medicaid covered the cost.
CONCLUSION
Pharmacists in rural areas are as willing as their urban counterparts to prescribe hormonal contraception. Financial barriers remain a concern.
目的
确定在两个州的农村地区药剂师开处避孕药的可及性。
研究设计
横断面调查。
结果
总体而言，有 42%的药房开处避孕药（俄勒冈州：46%，新墨西哥州：19%）。农村地区药房提供 37 种避孕药的药剂师处方服务的比例与城市地区相似（39%对 46%，p=0.26）。近 53%的农村药房和 45%的城市药房向女性直接收取药剂师咨询费用，而不是通过保险支付。超过 80%的农村和城市地区的药剂师不知道医疗补助是否涵盖该费用。
结论
农村地区的药剂师与城市药剂师一样愿意开处荷尔蒙避孕药。经济障碍仍然是一个问题。
