INTRODUCTION: Disparities in contraceptive counseling are well documented in the United States. People of color, those of lower socio-economic status, and Medicaid insurance are more likely to receive contraception/sterilization counseling than White patients. Postpartum contraceptive choice is an important aspect for pregnant people, especially for those who plan to breastfeed. This study assessed postpartum contraception/sterilization prescription among breastfeeding people in Rhode Island insured under Medicaid compared to other insurance carriers.
METHODS: Secondary analysis of data from the Rhode Island Pregnancy Risk Assessment Monitoring System (PRAMS) from 2016-2019. Participants who answered yes to 'having ever breastfed' were included and dichotomized based on insurance into 'Medicaid' or 'other insurance'. Primary outcome was postpartum contraception/sterilization prescription. Stata software version 15 was used to perform multivariable logistic regression accounting for complex survey design and weighting.
RESULTS: Of 3686 participants, 868 (24.4%) were insured under Medicaid. Medicaid participants were younger, had higher BMIs and were more likely to identify as Black or mixed race or Hispanic ethnicity than those with other insurers. Those insured under Medicaid were 1.5 times more likely to be prescribed postpartum contraception than those with other insurers (95% CI 1.26,1.78). After adjusting for race/ethnicity, education level, marital status and preterm delivery, those with Medicaid were 1.28 times more likely to be prescribed contraception (95% CI 1.05,1.57).
CONCLUSION: In this study, breastfeeding participants with Medicaid were more likely to be prescribed postpartum contraception than those with other insurances. Future research should be focused on assessing provider bias, contraception coercion, and initiatives to provide equitable and patient-centered counseling in this population.
