Click Find a Clinic to type in your zip code and find participating Partner clinics near you.

Does No Drama cover IUD and implant removals?

Any woman who wishes for her IUD or implant to be removed can have it removed at a No Drama clinic. However, No Drama will only pay for the removal for women who do not have insurance.

I don’t have insurance, but I have a hormonal IUD that I want to get switched out for the nonhormonal IUD. Can you help me?

Yes. Our No Drama program will help you find a No Drama clinic to assist you with changing your birth control option for free or low cost.

What do I need to do to get on birth control?

You will need to set up a virtual visit or an in-person appointment with one of our 100+ Partner clinics. A provider will help you determine which option is best for you. You can call toll-free 833-438-6922 or fill out a virtual or an in-person appointment request form.

Can No Drama help me obtain insurance?

No Drama clinic staff can help you determine if you might qualify for insurance through South Carolina’s Medicaid insurance program, Healthy Connections.

Learn more about Medicaid here or contact our No Drama Patient Advocate, Amy, at amy@nodrama.org for additional guidance.

We are unable to help you obtain private health insurance. You can compare plans and obtain federally subsidized, private health insurance through the Health Insurance Marketplace®.

How do I get started with No Drama?

Call toll-free 833-438-6922 or fill out an appointment request form. You will then receive a text or call from 803-219-1364 to help schedule a virtual visit or an in-person appointment.

How do I know if I qualify for No Drama?

Every woman in SC qualifies to receive services and birth control through No Drama. The program only covers the cost of birth control methods for uninsured women. For insured women, costs vary for services and methods based on different insurance plans and are not covered by No Drama. Medicaid Healthy Connections insurance covers all birth control methods including those provided by No Drama.

Is there a way to make an appointment online?

You can fill out an appointment request form for an in-person or virtual appointment. You will then be contacted by No Drama and be connected to a clinic to schedule an in-person appointment or sent a text link to set up a telehealth account and have a virtual visit.

What are your hours?

Click Find a Clinic, type in your zip code and find participating Partner clinics in your area and their hours of operation for in-person visits. Virtual visits are available at any time.

Does my income determine if I qualify to get a free or low-cost method through No Drama?

Uninsured women are eligible for free or low-cost birth control methods. Your household income determines what your cost will be for an in-person visit. Get more info and see if you qualify.

What is a virtual visit?

A virtual visit is an online consultation with a healthcare provider. You can have a virtual visit from your phone or computer 24/7 — day or night and even on weekends. If you’re interested in the pill, patch or ring, a virtual visit is a good option for you. You are unable to receive the Depo shot, an IUD or the Implant through a virtual visit. Those require an in-person appointment.

Is a virtual visit appropriate for everyone?

A virtual visit isn’t appropriate for everyone. Some birth control methods cannot be prescribed virtually. If you’re interested in an IUD, the Implant or a Depo shot, a virtual visit is not right for you. Instead, Find a Clinic near you and make an in-person appointment.

If you have insurance, we encourage you to Find a Clinic near you and make an in-person appointment. If you need help finding a provider who will take your insurance, chat with us online or email our No Drama Patient Advocate, Amy, at amy@nodrama.org.

Are virtual visits safe?

Yes, all virtual visit sessions are safe, secure and private, just like an in-person appointment. Your virtual visit is completely confidential. In addition, virtual visits are NEVER audio or video recorded without a patient’s consent.

Do I need a South Carolina ID to qualify for birth control?

No. Bring a photo ID to your appointment, preferably one showing your address in South Carolina. If you have recently relocated to our state, are enrolled in a college or university here, or are a member of the military stationed here, you will need to provide proof of residency like a utility bill in addition to your photo ID. For in-person appointments, we encourage you to contact a clinic in your area to confirm what documents will be required.

Is this program only available to residents of South Carolina?

No Drama is designed to serve those living in South Carolina. If you are residing in South Carolina temporarily or have moved here but not yet obtained legal residency status, No Drama can serve you. All you need to do is request a virtual or an in-person appointment. Or call us toll-free at 833-438-6922 to schedule your visit.

Is there someone who can help me navigate what to do next?

Yes! Amy, our No Drama Patient Advocate, can help answer any questions you have. She can be reached by emailing amy@nodrama.org.
