From Axios today: Women in California report heightened anxiety about the state of reproductive rights despite living in a blue state. Data from the Nurx's Reproductive Rights Watch for women in California: - 36% of women surveyed in California said they aren't confident that their right to use contraception is secure. - 38% also said they feel anxiety about accessing in-person care for reproductive and sexual health. - 71% have changed at least one health-related behavior in response to the political environment, including delaying preventive care, joining reproductive rights advocacy efforts, seeking emergency contraception and exploring sterilization. "We're seeing in this data that even when they live in places where the political environment is probably more favorable to their reproductive rights, women increasingly don't take all of these things for granted," Caroline Hofmann, chief business officer at Thirty Madison.

Just how difficult has the reproductive care environment become for women? As restrictions to care continue to be implemented in states like Iowa, results from Nurx’s Reproductive Rights Watch 2024 shed light on how these restrictions further complicate access to women’s health: - Over a third of women are facing longer than usual wait times due to restrictive reproductive care environments - Over a third of women are now using Telehealth due to the political environment - A quarter of women have experience judgment or shame in in-person provider settings Women’s healthcare experiences are paramount to driving health outcomes - which is why our focus should be on broadening access, not restricting it.

Today, we published the results of our Nurx survey: Reproductive Rights Watch 2024: How Women Are Responding to The Shifting Care Landscape. Among the findings, we found more than half of women surveyed are anxious about their reproductive freedoms given the political environment, and 49% of women feel anxiety about accessing in-person care for their reproductive and sexual health. Nurx remains committed to providing specialty healthcare to women that is accessible and personalized -  and with the results from this survey, we’re taking action. In a world that is trying to control care, control access, and control bodies, Nurx stands for putting the control back where it belongs: in women’s hands. We’re partnering with others in the women’s healthcare space over the coming months to speak out and help women take action and gain clarity on their reproductive and sexual healthcare choices. How you can help: - View the press release and share data from the survey: - Explore the full report: Nurx.com/repro-rights-2024 - Share your reactions to the survey - do the responses resonate with you?

Last week, Chief Medical Officer Neil Parikh, MD appeared on “The Physicians Guide to Doctoring” podcast, hosted by Bradley Block, MD. Neil shared our approach to asynchronous care at Thirty Madison and how patients benefit from ongoing access to clinical experts: "We do have a very formulaic approach about how and where we expand into. First, it all starts with the patients... listening to patients, understanding their sets of concerns, what they are seeking from us, so that we can ultimately get to a place where we manage all of our patients more holistically. Secondly, it's very much also about understanding can you manage these sets of conditions virtually… I think you’d be pleasantly surprised how much you can manage asynchronously and how in certain situations it’s actually a superior way of delivering care.” Listen to the full podcast: https://lnkd.in/edi4VGWC

Last night, Director of Partnerships Madeleine L. brought together a select group of executives dedicated to national healthcare innovation in conjunction with Connecticut Innovations, local startup executive Geoff Matous, and the V1C Coalition by DiMe. We were joined by Daniel O'Keefe, the Connecticut Economic Development Commissioner and Chief Innovation Officer, who shared remarks on the unique convergence of both healthcare and insurance in the state, and the opportunity for industry growth. The event featured a panel representing key healthcare stakeholders across Connecticut, including Matt Storeygard, Mike M., Katherine Saunders, MD, Barry Stein, MD, MBA, FSIR, FACR, RPVI, and Melissa Reilly. The insightful discussion was focused on how investors, startups, payors, and the health systems can work together to advance access, clinical outcomes, and total cost of care. Thank you to this incredible group for joining us!

In yet another ruling today impacting reproductive care rights from the U.S. Supreme Court, SCOTUS dismisses the case in Idaho, allowing the right to essential and emergency medical care on a temporary basis while the case continues. Hear directly from Dr. Navya Mysore, Medical Director of Women’s Health for Nurx, on what this means for patients.

Meet Dr. Navya Mysore, our new Medical Director of Women’s Health at Nurx! Navya joins Thirty Madison as a women's health expert with a focus on primary care.

We are thrilled to have Navya join our clinical team to continue improving access to high-quality care across women’s health led by experts. Please join us in welcoming Navya!

Today marks two years since the U.S. Supreme Court overturned Roe v. Wade. Since the ruling, states have implemented restrictions on reproductive care, causing patients to travel to gain access to the care they need. Our clinical team is passionate about ensuring patients are aware of their options, as restrictions and ongoing challenges have profoundly impacted their healthcare overall. Cristin Hackel, Nurx Women's Health Specialist and Nurse Practitioner, shares what she wants women of reproductive age to know: "Know your choices. Question what you see and hear on social media. Talk to a medical professional to fully understand the risks and benefits of birth control. Take control of what YOU want to do. Last but certainly not least... Nurx is here for them when they need us."

Our team is excited to be presenting exciting new research on patient outcomes this week at the American Headache Society’s Annual Scientific Meeting! Patients receiving migraine care with Cove gain 7.9 productive days back a quarter on average, which amounts to over a month a year. Today, Cove Neurologist Dr. Saurabh Sharma will discuss how Cove’s asynchronous Migraine care is making a significant impact on patient lives by addressing affordability and access gaps. If you’re attending AHS, stop by our poster to learn more from Dr. Sharma and Emily Smith, Cove Strategy & Operations Lead. Migraine is the second leading cause of disability worldwide and the leading cause of disability in young women. We are proud to help patients reclaim moments in their lives and deliver specialty healthcare the way it should be: affordable, easily accessible, and tailored to each patient’s needs. #AHSAM #headachemedicine

Today’s unanimous Supreme Court decision is a win for reproductive freedom, access, and bodily autonomy. Mifepristone has been safely used for abortion and miscarriage care for decades, and this case rejection highlights how important it is for policies about healthcare to be informed by healthcare professionals and accurate information. While mifepristone remains available nationally, we still have a long way to go for everyone to have access to the essential and quality healthcare they deserve. We continue to recommend our trusted partners Hey Jane to Nurx patients in need of safe, clinically-proven abortion care from home.
