Illinois State House District 56 issued the following announcement on Aug. 13
Access to Contraception during COVID!
Health care providers statewide have implemented safety measures to screen patients and staff and minimize risk for all who need to access health care. Still, during these unprecedented times, some people may not be able to show up in person and need other ways to get the care they need, including birth control, accessing STI tests, or pregnancy and family planning options.
Planned Parenthood of Illinois (PPIL) has responded to this need by rolling out telehealth services. This new service allows patients to access high-quality, affordable health care through a private and secure video conferencing platform that connects them with PPIL’s trusted providers from the safety of their home.
To make a telehealth appointment at PPIL, call 1-877-200-PPIL (7745) or make an appointment online. You can also download the Planned Parenthood Direct App to get birth control and UTI medication through your phone and have it sent directly to your home.
