In the initial two years of the Choose Well initiative, partnered South Carolina Federally Qualified Health Center (FQHC) clinics reported that efforts directed toward expanding workforce capacity positively impacted contraceptive service provision and patient access. We conducted key informant interviews with FQHC clinical and administrative staff (N= 45) to assess progress in achieving this aim during the first two years of program implementation (2017 and 2018). Several respondents highlighted how funding to expand clinic workforce directly increased capacity for contraceptive provision. Other key findings supporting contraceptive provision noted that funding allowed enhanced hiring practices due to expanded service lines, increased quality of patient care, and opportunity to further service provision expansion. In conjunction, several respondents emphasized the initiative's reproductive health trainings led to improved quality of patient care services, workflow performance, and capacity for patient counseling.

This report summarizes key findings related to the evaluation of the Choose Well Initiative at the mid-point. Results are not complete but provide a brief summary of key findings and evidence to date.
