Description

Manitoba just revolutionized birth control access—pharmacists can now prescribe and administer key methods like pills, patches, rings, and injections, all free for those with a Manitoba Health card. After making birth control free, the province tackled the next hurdle: prescription barriers. With trained pharmacists stepping in, getting contraception is faster, easier, and right in your neighborhood pharmacy. Up to three assessments and four injections per year, no out-of-pocket cost. A major win for reproductive healthcare accessibility.
