That is not the case at all schools. At Vanderbilt, for example, you see the dr. for 5 minutes, no exam, no pregnancy test and you pay $10.
ETA:
University of Virginia charges $15. Depending on your history, they may or may not do an examination.
University of South Carolina does not routinely test for pregnancy or perform examinations.
University of Wisconsin - Madison has a number you can call and not even see a doctor to get the prescription
University of Michigan requires a visit with a nurse and you pay $13.60 for the pills.
My only point is this - Many people say that emergency contraception is so difficult to get and that's not the case everywhere. It doesn't have to get to the point that someone would need a late-term abortion.
