Pennsylvania Medicaid policy and rural hospital implementation of immediate postpartum contraception.
Article in Contraception, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 1 paper.
What it found
Each row is one number read from the abstract, on the scale the paper reported it, with its interval. Left of the dashed line favours the treatment, right favours the comparator. Under each row is the sentence it came from. New to these charts? A ten-minute tutorial.
The abstract states no effect estimate the extractor could read, or names no intervention and outcome on the map, so this paper lights no cell and moves no belief. It is still indexed, cited and linked below.
The trial behind it
Trials whose registry record cites this paper, or whose number appears in the abstract. A trial that started after this paper was published is citing it as background, not reporting it.
Neither the registry nor the abstract names a trial number. If this is a trial report, that itself is worth knowing.

Abstract
objectivesThis study aimed to assess the importance of Pennsylvania Medicaid immediate postpartum long-acting reversible contraception (IPLARC) reimbursement policy changes for hospital implementation of IPLARC by rurality. STUDY
designWe surveyed clinician leaders at 51 of 82 (62.2%) Pennsylvania hospitals with labor and delivery units in 2022, including 10 of 51 (19.6%) rural and 17 of 51 (33.3%) academic.
resultsSix years after Pennsylvania Medicaid began covering IPLARC outside the obstetrical care bundle, only 3 of 10 (30.0%) rural and 18 of 41 (43.9%) nonrural labor and delivery units had implemented IPLARC.
conclusionsFewer than half of delivering hospitals in Pennsylvania offered access to IPLARC, even after favorable Medicaid reimbursement policy changes. Nonrural hospitals are more likely to offer IPLARC than rural hospitals.
