[HIV-STD-Prevention] Free HIV and Syphilis testing through STDcheck.com #u#

[Bortoli Gianna A]

Hello HIV and STD Prevention Partners,

There is a new free HIV and syphilis testing option available to Oregonians.

STDcheck.com offers free lab-based testing for HIV and syphilis to anyone 18 years and older in Oregon at Quest and Labcorp locations. Screening for other sexually transmitted infections, such as chlamydia and gonorrhea, is available with a cost through STDcheck.com.
How to schedule free HIV and/or syphilis testing:

  *   Visit STDcheck.com and click "Find a Lab" to find testing locations in your area. Oregon residents can use any lab locations that work best, even those in bordering states.
  *   Once you have selected a lab location, call 1-800-456-2323 and press 1 to request your free Oregon HIV and/or syphilis test.
  *   A representative will help you schedule your lab appointment at a time and location convenient for you.
  *   You will receive your test results electronically in 1-2 days. If you have a positive result, a clinician from STDCheck.com will call to follow up with you, answer any questions you may have, and provide information on how to access treatment. You may also receive a follow up call from your local health department.

These instructions and the STDcheck.com link are posted on OHA's HIV Prevention website: https://www.oregon.gov/oha/PH/DiseasesConditions/HIVSTDViralHepatitis/HIVPrevention/Pages/index.aspx

If this free testing resource may be a good option for folks in your jurisdiction, please feel free to post this information on your sites as well.
