Available telehealth services include birth control refills, pregnancy options, counseling, emergency contraceptives, and screenings for sexually transmitted infections.
Gender affirming care and the medication PrEP, for HIV prevention, are available at some sites if a person has received them in the past.
“The past few years have highlighted the importance of people’s ability to connect remotely with healthcare providers,” said the release. “Delays in accessing care can impact sexual and reproductive health outcomes. DOH wants to help make sexual and reproductive health services accessible for more people in the state, including areas with fewer health facilities.
Telehealth will make it easier for people far from healthcare locations to connect with a provider via phone or video appointments, said the DOH. “Telehealth is an important way to get more people the sexual and reproductive health care they need when they need it,” said Michele Roberts, Assistant Secretary for Prevention and Community Health, Department of Health. “This option will help increase access in parts of the state where an in-person visit may be challenging. Patients can still receive the same level of care remotely in a setting that suits them best.
