METHODS: Simulations from a retrospective cohort study estimating the potential increase in permanent contraception within 365 days of delivery.
RESULTS: In our sample of 2076 patients, 61% achieved permanent contraception with the current waiting period of 30 days. With the waiting period hypothetically reduced to 15, 3, 1, and 0 days, 62.9%, 63.7%, 64.5%, and 75% patients, respectively, would have achieved permanent contraception.
CONCLUSIONS: As potential Medicaid sterilization policy revisions are considered, understanding the impact on fulfillment rates is critical.
方法:来自一项回顾性队列研究的模拟,该研究估计了分娩后365天内永久性避孕的潜在增加结果:在我们的2,076名患者样本中,61%的人在目前的等待期为30天的情况下实现了永久避孕。假设等待期减少到15、3、1和0天,62.9%,63.7%,64.5%,75%的患者,分别,会实现永久避孕。
结论:考虑到潜在的医疗补助绝育政策修订,了解对履约率的影响至关重要。
