A new fee structure was introduced to the Advanced Training and Research in Fertility Management Unit in 1992. The study looked at the effect of the new fees on attendance and the choice of contraceptive methods through an examination of clinical records and a questionnaire survey. There was a decline in attendance of roughly 28 per cent between 1992 and 1993. The decline affected mainly new clients and those who accepted injectables. A reduction in the price of injectables is suggested since the fee for this short-term method is more in line with those charged for long-term and permanent methods.
1992年，生育管理高级培训与研究部门引入了新的收费结构。该研究通过检查临床记录和问卷调查，研究了新收费对就诊率和避孕方法选择的影响。1992年至1993年间，就诊率下降了约28%。下降主要影响新客户和接受注射避孕法的人群。由于这种短期避孕方法的费用与长期和永久避孕方法的收费相比更不划算，建议降低注射避孕法的价格。
