Emergency contraceptive pill dispensation was estimated in Michigan Title X family planning programs.
Logistic regression and tobit estimation models were used to predict whether and to what extent emergency contraceptive pills are dispensed.
Of the 53 programs studies, 32 dispensed emergency contraceptive pills, averaging fewer than one client per month. Total dispensation was skewed toward a few programs, and the contribution of health departments to this total was small. Emergency contraceptive pill services appeared to be randomly distributed across programs, although most dispenser reported having provided the pills for less than 12 months.
Recent policy advances should lead to more consistent emergency contraceptive pill dispensation in Title X programs.
对密歇根州第十类计划生育项目中的紧急避孕药发放情况进行评估。
采用逻辑回归和托比特估计模型来预测紧急避孕药是否发放以及发放的程度。
在研究的53个项目中,32个项目发放紧急避孕药,平均每月发放对象少于一人。发放总量偏向少数几个项目,卫生部门对这一总量的贡献较小。紧急避孕药服务在各项目中似乎是随机分布的,尽管大多数发放者报告称提供这些药物的时间不到12个月。
近期的政策进展应会使第十类项目中紧急避孕药的发放更加一致。
