Factors Affecting Willingness to Provide Medication Abortion Among North American Society for Pediatric and Adolescent Gynecology Members Caring for Adolescents and Young Adults Following the Dobbs Decision
Study Objective
To assess willingness to provide medication abortion among North American Society for Pediatric and Adolescent Gynecology (NASPAG) clinicians caring for adolescents and young adults (AYA) following Dobbs v. Jackson Women's Health Organization.
Design
Cross-sectional online survey.
Methods
Potential participants received an e-mail invitation via the NASPAG listserv. A 43-item questionnaire queried demographics, practice setting, abortion training and practice, willingness to provide medication abortion, potential or real barriers to providing medication abortion, and sentiments of abortion. Descriptive statistics, χ2, and Fisher's exact tests were used.
Results
Of the 70 participants, 51% were willing to provide a medication abortion for an adolescent who requested it in their clinical practice. The most common barriers to providing medication abortion were legislative restrictions (47%) and dispensing pills from clinic (33%). Participants’ willingness to provide a medication abortion differed by type of practice (P = .001), availability of mifepristone (P = .006), perception of state's abortion policy (P = .001), concern about legislative restrictions (P = .008), experience providing abortion (P = .04), and receipt of medication abortion training (P = .02). Willingness to provide medication abortion also differed based on various sentiments of abortion measured but not on opinion regarding legality of abortion for adolescents (P = .49).
Conclusions
Perception of state's abortion rights and concern about legislative restrictions influenced NASPAG clinicians’ willingness to provide medication abortion for adolescents. Interventions to minimize legislative interference with medical care, increase abortion training, and implement medication abortion in pediatric settings may expand AYA medication abortion access.
