A Prospective Observational Study of the Implementation of Telehealth-Supported LARC Provision in School-Based Health Centers
In Brief
An observational study evaluating Telehealth-supported LARC provision for Long Acting Reversible Contraception and Contraception Behavior. Completed, enrolled 75 participants across 1 site.
Detailed Summary
This is a prospective observational cohort study that will include SBHC patients at the 6 participating SBHCs who receive a reproductive health visit as part of their care in a setting where telehealth-supported care is available. Information will be collected during patient interviews in the follow-up observation period regarding LARC initiation, satisfaction and continuation. Aim 1. Quantify uptake of LARC (contraceptive implant, IUD) within the SBHC network following implementation of telehealth-supported LARC provision. Aim 2: Describe the implementation of telehealth-supported long-acting reversible contraception (LARC) service provision in school-based health centers (SBHCs) using mixed methods. Aim 3: Quantify LARC continuation, as in absolute continuation rate 12 months post-initiation, with analyses also examining continuation at 6 months follow-up period, among LARC initiators within the SBHC network following implementation of telehealth-supported LARC provision. Aim 4: Compare continuation rates across dimensions of telehealth experience.

Interventions
Provision of LARC in routine care will include a hybrid model of telehealth-supported long-acting reversible contraception (LARC) service provision in a network of 6 school-based health centers (SBHCs) in New York City that serve adolescents and young adult high school students age 13-22 years (hereafter referred to as "adolescents").
