Uhm S, Chen MJ, Cutler ED, et al. - This study was attempted to assess the proportion of 12-month contraceptive pill, patch, and ring prescriptions before and after an institution-wide change of default electronic medical record facility orders to dispensing 12-month supply. Researchers conducted a retrospective pre-post study comparing outpatient contraception prescriptions from August 10, 2019 through April 9, 2020 obtained from the institutional electronic medical record prescription database. The analysis enrolled 4,897 distinct evaluable prescriptions for the pill, patch, or ring, with an overall increase in 12-month prescriptions from 260/2437 (10.7%) to 669/2460 (27.2%) after the order change ( p < 0.001). The results demonstrated that providers more frequently prescribed a 12-month supply of contraceptive pills, patches, and rings after a change in the default dispensing quantity in electronic medical record orders.
