The experience of Thailand shows that a universal coverage system contributes to the affordability as well as the wide availability of contraceptives in an effective manner. Countries with a similar level of economic development as Thailand should work towards establishing national insurance schemes comprising a reproductive health package that ensures that contraceptive commodities essential to the population's welfare and the development of the country are covered. After all, contraceptive security in its broad sense of availability of a wide range of quality contraceptives is meant for all and not only for the advantaged groups of society.
