Article Slideshow Optional Introduction

Congress has recently made strides in eliminating barriers to contraception for the growing population of female veterans who are in their childbearing years. The Access to Contraception Expansion (ACE) Veterans Act was introduced to both the Senate and the House in 2021, proposing that patients receiving prescription contraception in the VA be allowed to request full year supplies. Also in 2021, the House passed the Equal Access to Contraception for Veterans Act, which would eliminate copays charged to veterans for contraception. While these bills have yet to pass into law, they represent important first steps in addressing gaps in reproductive care for veterans.1-4
