Area of Science:

  • Reproductive Health
  • Pharmaceutical Services
  • Public Health Programs

Background:

  • The Emergency Contraceptive Pills (ECP) program aimed to increase access to ECP through collaborative prescribing agreements between pharmacists and prescribers.
  • This initiative was implemented in western Washington.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To assess provider perspectives on the ECP program.
  • To evaluate pharmacist performance in delivering ECP services via consumer surveys.

Main Methods:

  • Provider satisfaction surveys were mailed to pharmacists and prescribers.
  • Consumer satisfaction surveys were distributed at the point of ECP service.
  • Participants included pharmacists, prescribers, and women who received ECP from pharmacists.

Main Results:

  • High satisfaction rates (92%) were reported by both pharmacists and prescribers regarding their prescribing agreements.
  • Consumers rated pharmacists highly for interactions and ECP use information.
  • Areas for improvement included information on adverse effects, ECP failure follow-up, and regular contraceptive methods.

Conclusions:

  • The ECP program demonstrated high satisfaction among all participants.
  • The program's success suggests its potential for replication in other states.
