Frequently asked questions
- Can I get tested for STDs without insurance?
- Yes. The clinics listed here serve uninsured patients, and most charge on a sliding scale based on your household income, so testing may be free or low-cost depending on what you earn. Each listing shows the clinic's fee structure; call ahead to confirm what testing costs there.
- Do these clinics also test for HIV?
- Many do. Clinics on this page that list HIV testing among their services are marked "Also tests for HIV". If HIV testing matters to you, confirm it when you call.
- Can a teenager get tested without a parent?
- In every state and Washington, DC, minors can consent to STI testing and treatment themselves, according to the Guttmacher Institute. Eight states set a minimum age (12 or 14, for example), and some states allow or require a provider to notify parents in certain situations, such as a positive HIV test. Ask the clinic about its confidentiality policy when you call.
- What if there's no clinic close enough?
- The CDC's GetTested locator (gettested.cdc.gov) lists HIV, STD and hepatitis testing sites across the country, many of them free or low-cost. Your county health department is also worth calling: many run their own STD clinics.
