Where do female contraceptive users get their methods, and does this differ by insurance coverage? A state-level examination.

Describe where female contraceptive users obtained their method, by insurance and state.

Using 2022 Behavioral Risk Factor Surveillance System data from female contraceptive users in 26 states, we describe source of contraception by state and type of insurance coverage.

Most female contraceptive users utilized private providers, but those with public or no insurance often used community health centers and family planning clinics, which commonly receive public funding.

People who are publicly insured or uninsured often rely on publicly supported providers.

Supporting a variety of providers may facilitate people accessing care, regardless of income.
