Over the last year, the Family PACT Program has added several new benefits. These include three new contraceptive methods, a diagnostic test for Mycoplasma genitalium, and modifications in STI treatments based on the 2021 CDC STI Treatment Guidelines. In this webinar, a description of the new benefits will be provided and the Family PACT policies that relate to their utilization will be discussed. There will be ample time to ask questions regarding these and other Family PACT benefits.
