• Women's Health Care and Health Reform: The Key Role of Comprehensive Reproductive Health Care (PDF)
  This report, co-authored by Wendy Chavkin of Columbia University’s Mailman School of Public Health and Sara Rosenbaum of the GW School of Public Health and Health Services, makes a case for a comprehensive "well-woman standard of care" and underscores why such a standard must include reproductive health. The analysis makes a scientific, data-driven case that reproductive health is a key determinant of women's overall health, and therefore, that the treatments and services that promote reproductive health should therefore be part of any national health plan.
