This conversation is an opportunity to rethink how commitments on gender equality can be anchored in development partnerships with different actors in the context of post-Rio and post-2015. Participants are expected to discuss innovative thinking on how MA must advance conceptually and how gender equality can be anchored at the heart of this discussion. Suggestions should be made as to how gender advocates can be supported in the implementation and influence of MA enablers at all levels to achieve measurable results while promoting a smooth transition to sustainable development and a unified post-2015 UN development agenda. . | GUTTMACHER Testimony of Guttmacher Institute Submitted to the Committee on Preventive Services for Women Institute of Medicine January 12 2011 The Guttmacher Institute is a private nonprofit organization dedicated to advancing sexual and reproductive health in the United States and worldwide through research policy analysis and public education. We are pleased to have the opportunity to submit this testimony on women s preventive health services and the provision of the Patient Protection and Affordable Care Act known commonly as the Women s Health Amendment. The Women s Health Amendment will allow the Department of Health and Human Services with this panel s assistance to address critical gaps in the package of preventive services currently required to be covered without cost-sharing by all new private health plans. We will focus on one such gap that falls within the Guttmacher Institute s primary areas of expertise family planning. Specifically we urge this panel to recommend that the Department comprehensively incorporate under the rubric of women s preventive care and screenings the full range of reversible and permanent contraceptive drugs devices and procedures related clinical services necessary to appropriately supply those methods including injections insertion and removal of an IUD or implant and fitting for a diaphragm or cervical cap and the contraceptive counseling needed to promote optimal method choice and effective use. Contraceptive services and supplies fit any reasonable definition of preventive care and their effectiveness is supported by a strong body of evidence. Contraception helps women avoid unintended pregnancy and improve birthspacing with substantial positive consequences for infants women families and society. Although cost can be a daunting barrier to effective contraceptive use for an individual woman insurance coverage of contraceptive services and supplies without costsharing is a low-cost or even cost-saving means of helping women
