Materials and Methods: A descriptive study using qualitative data collected through 27 semistructured key informant interviews was conducted during the final year of the learning community among all jurisdictional teams. Excerpts were extracted and coded by theme, then summarized as barriers or facilitators using implementation science methods. Results: Most jurisdictions (89%) identified barriers to reimbursement processes, device acquisition, stocking, and supply of LARC devices, and 85% of jurisdictions identified facilitators for these domains. Payment methodology challenges and lack of billing and coding processes were identified as the most common barriers to reimbursement processes. Device acquisition cost challenges and lack of delivery facility protocols for billing were the most common barriers to device acquisition, stocking, and supply of LARC. The most common facilitator of reimbursement processes was expanded payment methodology options, whereas supplemental funding for acquisition costs and protocol development were identified as the most common facilitators of device acquisition, stocking, and supply. Conclusion: Revised payment methodologies and broader health systems changes including additional funding sources and protocols for billing, stocking, and supply were used by learning community jurisdictions to address identified barriers. The learning community framework offers a forum for information exchange, peer-to-peer learning, and sharing of best practices to support jurisdictions in addressing identified barriers and facilitators affecting contraception access. pubtype: Academic Journal doctype: research tables/charts Journal Article ougenre: Article language: English refInfo: holdings: @attributes: islocal: N |
