Key Points Question Does an association exist between a program-level incentive metric for contraceptive use among women enrolled in Medicaid and the increased use of effective contraceptive methods? Findings This cohort study using a comparative interrupted time series analysis of 532 337 Medicaid person-years and 1 131 738 privately insured person-years found that a program level incentive was associated with an increase in the use of effective contraception among women enrolled in the Oregon Medicaid program relative to changes in contraceptive use by commercially insured women. Meaning The findings of this study support program-based incentives for the provision of effective contraception use among women enrolled in Medicaid.
