Abstract

Family Planning Elevated (FPE) is a contraceptive access initiative in Utah. FPE designed and utilized a comprehensive monitoring system to identify and respond to challenges implementing our initiative as they arose. Here, we describe the components of our monitoring system, and highlight how FPE's monitoring system successfully identified that Utah's Medicaid expansion was not widely adopted by eligible individuals. We then describe how FPE adapted to this challenge. (Am J Public Health. 2022;112(S5):S528-S531. https://doi.org/10.2105/AJPH.2022.306935).
