When a patient's financial hardship becomes a barrier in obtaining contraceptives, health-care professionals can turn to the Compassionate Contraceptive Assistance Program to receive free prescriptions. Administered by the Society of Obstetricians and Gynaecologists of Canada (SOGC), the program ensures that access to contraception is not denied due to a lack of funds.
A patient is eligible for compassionate supplies in the event that she is not covered by a private insurance plan or government assistance and requires more than a demonstration sample because she is unable to pay for her medication. There are no monthly or yearly limits on the number of requests submitted for these reasons.
