USA – A Safe Choice Network: offering nationwide access to medication abortion pills, urges women to prepare for possible changes in federal policies by ordering pills in advance 

A service known as “Advance Provision” is available nationally now

A Safe Choice is a new referral network of medical doctors who provide safe and effective medication abortion services nationwide in the USA. They are urging women to order pills in advance of actually needing them, in light of current legal and political efforts to restrict access to reproductive healthcare.

A medication abortion, also known as a medical abortion, refers to the termination of a pregnancy that results from taking a combination of two US Food & Drug Administration-approved medications, mifepristone and misoprostol. Telehealth medication abortion describes the provision of abortion care via telephone, consultations via video, and/or online communication between patients and healthcare providers. Telehealth medication abortions typically involve the shipment of mifepristone and misoprostol pills directly to your home. Advance provision is a term used to describe the provision of these medications to people who are not currently pregnant but may become so.

Advance Provision

… It is important for US Americans to know they still have choices, even if they are not currently pregnant. Continued legal access to medication abortion pills via telehealth nationwide is at risk, however. Federal policies could be enacted on short notice that could restrict the dispensing or mailing of the medications. Advance provision of medical abortion pills is one way to preserve access to safe, effective, and affordable medication abortions. Both mifepristone and misoprostol have a shelf-life of at least two years.

From California, serving patients nationwide

California is one of eight US states that allows licensed healthcare providers to provide reproductive healthcare–including medication abortion pills–to patients who reside in other states. As a new referral network, A Safe Choice is recruiting additional California-based physicians who align with the company’s requirements and values. A Safe Choice’s in-network doctors stand apart by offering prospective patients free telehealth consultations, thereby providing an added layer of clarity and support.

About A Safe Choice

A Safe Choice, a woman-owned business, is dedicated to the values that align with those of a compassionate doctor who offered care to our founder. She was a mother of two children with a demanding career when she was diagnosed with a non-viable pregnancy in her second trimester. She remembers how grateful she was for the comfort and help provided by her physician during this uncertain time in her life. He helped her feel secure and reassured that all would be well. Though she prefers to remain private, she is proud to support other women.

A Safe Choice’s physicians charge US$150. For that, they will send patients a discreet envelope that contains one mifepristone pill (200 mg) and 12 misoprostol pills (200 mcg each) with detailed instructions. Packages are delivered within 1-4 days via Priority Mail. Clinician support is available via phone or secure messaging.
