Illinois Working on Expanding Access to Contraception for Women
Allowing pharmacists to provide contraception increases access to basic health care that is safe and allows women to plan for their futures. As R Street Institute, a right of center think thank has indicated, “… Illinois should consider implementing the pharmacy access model to allow pharmacists to prescribe birth control to patients seeking a provider. This model has already passed and is working in a number of states since 2015, and it is time for Illinois to follow suit.”11
