Abstract:
Historically, reproductive health issues have dominated election campaigns’ attention to women’s health policy, with abortion taking center stage. However, women’s health policy intersects with a far wider span of health policies, including private sector cost containment, expansions and reforms of public programs, family-friendly workplace policies, long-term care financing, access to safe and comprehensive reproductive health care services, and medical research priorities.
