Rep. Miller-Meeks on seeking a fourth term in Iowa's 1st Congressional District
M
8:13Megan KavanaughGUEST
Well, importantly, to build on what Rachel just said about how they used to think about contraceptive deserts, we have taken a new approach and partnership to make sure that we are talking about contraceptive access in ways that are reflecting what's actually happening on the ground.
M
8:29Megan KavanaughGUEST
So these new estimates really take availability of publicly funded clinic care and match that against self-defined need for that low or no-cost care among women who live in counties across Iowa as a state, and we did this nationally across the country.
B
10:46Ben KiefferHOST
So i- it's trending in, uh, a, a, a worse direction i, in terms of, uh, healthcare access, uh, for these types of prescriptions, isn't it?
M
10:57Megan KavanaughGUEST
These are maps that really reflect the landscape between 2020 to 2023, and we know that there has been significant disruption and flux in access to contraceptive care, and especially in access to publicly funded contraceptive care since this time.
M
11:13Megan KavanaughGUEST
So we actually consider these maps to be the pre or the before period of what has been happening in terms of more restrict- more restrictions on the funding for contraceptive care.
