Abstract
In this comment we chronicle the development and expansion of a postabortion care model designed to promote interventions that address abortion-related public health concerns even when abortion laws and policies are restrictive. We review years of program experience with the original model which led to the development of an expanded and updated model Essential Elements of Postabortion Care (PAC). Implementing the model challenges global public health leaders donors technical assistance agencies and ministries of health to work with communities to ensure that all women who want to prevent or space pregnancies can obtain contraceptive services; that all women have access to services to manage complications abortion whether induced or spontaneous; and that women receiving treatment also receive counseling and reproductive and other health services they need at the treatment visit as well as follow-up care and contraceptive resupply.
