Patients can now receive birth control, emergency contraception, and vaginal infections treatment
NEW YORK–(BUSINESS WIRE)–Hey Jane, the leading virtual abortion provider, announced the expansion of its patient-centered reproductive and sexual health care services. The company is now offering vaginal infections treatment including UTIs, yeast infections, bacterial vaginosis and herpes both oral (HSV1) and genital (HSV2), birth control, and emergency contraception to ensure fast, discreet, and convenient support for these common—yet stigmatized—health care needs during this pivotal time for reproductive health.
As the most trusted virtual provider of medication abortion care, patients already come to Hey Jane with one of their most sensitive health care needs. Now, they can access the same FDA-approved medications they can get from their doctor or local clinic, but from the comfort and convenience of their phone. After completing a quick intake, the patient will be connected to a provider through Hey Jane’s secure messaging platform, where they will be able to consult with Hey Jane’s expert clinicians via text, phone, or video.
“We have already earned the trust of tens of thousands of patients seeking medication abortions to help them with one of their most intimate health care needs, and are passionate about applying that same patient-centered approach to other equally important areas of reproductive health,” said Alyssa Wagner, DNP, RN, APRN, WHNP-BC, Hey Jane’s Medical Director. “We believe the best person to make decisions about their body is the patient themself. Our goal is to empower our patients with the knowledge and tools to prioritize their reproductive and sexual health and give them the support and prescriptions they need to do just that.”
These new services are rooted in Hey Jane’s commitment to making reproductive and sexual health care as safe, discreet and judgment-free as possible. Affordability is another key component in Hey Jane’s new service offerings: Hey Jane partners with select insurances for birth control and infection consultations and emergency contraception, as well as offers a sliding scale payment option for those paying out of pocket.
“When we started Hey Jane, we were addressing one of the most critical health care needs: abortion,” said Kiki Freedman, co-founder and CEO of Hey Jane. “Along the way, we’ve listened to our patients and witnessed firsthand the deteriorating state of reproductive and sexual health care in our country. We knew it was time to help expand access to other crucial services while continuing to provide the care patients deserve.”
Hey Jane’s expansion of services is currently available in the 11 states where the company operates, including CA, CO, CT, IL, MD, MA, VA, NJ, NM, NY, and WA, with plans to launch in more states throughout 2023.
