The benefit of health insurance coverage of contraceptives in a population-based sample.

Ann Kurth1, Marcia Weaver, David Lockhart, Lori Bielinski.   

Abstract

This study estimated the value of contraceptives, through a random-digit-dialed survey of willingness to pay for health insurance coverage of contraceptives among 659 Washington State adults. People valued contraceptives at 5 times the actuarial cost; in general, women and reproductive-aged persons were willing to pay more, but low-income men highly valued contraceptives. Most respondents (85%) said that contraceptives should be covered by health insurance plans. The full benefit of contraceptives exceeds their cost.
