OvaryIt: Breaking Barriers to Birth Control with Pharmacists at the Center | MaternalRx

On this episode of MaternalRx on the Pharmacy Podcast Network, host Dr. Danielle Raiman Plummer, PharmD, consulting pharmacist, sits down with Mary Kucek, PMP, and Dr. Devin Bustin, MD, co-founders of OvaryIt, creators of the PRISM EHR platform and the OvaryIt Foundation for survivors of domestic abuse and human trafficking. Mary shares her powerful and life-threatening experience with a telemedicine platform that failed to follow contraceptive safety guidelines, an event that changed the course of her career and mission. Together, Mary and Dr. Bustin explain how their NIH-funded research led to the creation of OvaryIt and PRISM: an innovative, pharmacist-centered platform that bridges the safety of in-person care with the accessibility of telehealth. Tune in to hear how retail pharmacists can now lead the next evolution in family planning access, overcoming the barriers to scaling these services, and how technology and policy can empower safer, more equitable reproductive care for all. “Prism will help retail pharmacies become public health access points for central health services.” 💡 Stay Connected & Take Action! - Follow OvaryIt on all social platforms to stay updated on their mission to expand safe, pharmacist-led access to reproductive care. - For Patients: Learn more or find care at MyPrismHealth.com. - For Pharmacists, Pharmacy Owners, and Staff: Discover how to bring contraceptive care to your community with GetPrismRx.com. - Explore Free Education & Advocacy: Visit OvaryFund.org — the OvaryIt Foundation supporting survivors of domestic abuse and human trafficking through education and access. - Advocate for Change: Contact your local representatives to support the ECAPS Act, which recognizes pharmacists as healthcare providers under Medicare Part B and helps expand access to essential reproductive health services.
