RESUMO

We conducted qualitative research with family planning clients, potential clients, and service providers on barriers and opportunities for improving the quality of family planning services in the Philippines. The family planning service providers included the primary, secondary, and tertiary levels of the health system. Our goal was to aid in developing more effective family planning quality improvement (QI) programs. Our methods included focus groups, key informant interviews and thematic content analysis of the qualitative data. We found four themes: the components of quality of family planning care; factors influencing quality; challenges for improving quality; and provider bias in the types of family planning services offered to clients. We identified five implications for QI, including: reduce provider bias; level off the understanding of QI concepts and roles among the different family planning service providers; involve men more actively; design new digital communication strategies for reaching clients and potential clients; and explore collaborations with private sector pharmacies. The findings from this study can guide the development of a pilot family planning QI programme in the Philippines. The findings provide themes and practical insights for an intervention-focused theory of change on how to improve current programs, design new programs, be more responsive to the needs and concerns of clients and potential clients and be well-accepted and sustained by providers. This can lay the groundwork for improving family planning outcomes and reducing teenage pregnancy rates and the unmet need for family planning throughout the Philippines.
