Zero-Cost Care Across Every Service Offered

Door County Medical Center's no-fee structure applies across the entire service line: testing, treatment, vaccines, and counseling alike. Medicaid, Medicare, and private insurance are accepted, and for those without coverage, a sliding scale bottoms out at no charge, with no service excluded from that floor.

Hepatitis C Treatment Happens Here, Start to Finish

The hepatitis C antibody test at Door County Medical Center connects directly to on-site treatment, the clinic carries both diagnostic and therapeutic capacity for hep C, so a confirmed result moves into a treatment plan within the same facility rather than triggering a separate specialist search.

The Panel Extends to Hepatitis C and TB

Beyond gonorrhea, chlamydia, syphilis, and rapid HIV, Door County Medical Center adds hepatitis C antibody testing and a TB test to the standard screen. Both hepatitis C and TB also have dedicated treatment programs on-site, so a positive result on either connects immediately to care rather than a separate pathway.

Herpes and All Three Hepatitis Strains Tested

The panel at Newcap extends to herpes and hepatitis A, B, and C alongside the bacterial STIs and HIV. Six conditions that a narrower panel would miss. Hepatitis A and B vaccines are also on-site, so a reactive hepatitis result can move directly toward prevention for close contacts.

Spanish-Speaking Staff Handle Clinical Conversations

Spanish-language care at Newcap is a staffed clinical function: counseling, medication adherence education, and treatment discussions happen directly in Spanish, without routing through a separate service. That means dosing instructions, follow-up schedules, and test results are communicated in the same language the appointment is conducted in.

Reading these numbers: reported case rates only count infections that were actually tested for and diagnosed, so they track local screening effort as much as true spread: a higher rate can reflect more testing, a lower one less. Either way, most STIs cause no symptoms, so treat the figures above as context rather than a verdict, and test on the CDC's schedule regardless of how your area looks.

Confidentiality & consent in Wisconsin

Minor consent and partner treatment (EPT) under state law, plus how to test privately

Two things that actually depend on Wisconsin law: who can consent, and whether partners can be treated without their own visit. Everything else about testing privately is the same nationwide (see below).

Can a minor consent on their own?

In Wisconsin, a minor of any age can consent to confidential STI testing and treatment on their own, no parental permission is required.

Can my partner be treated too? (EPT)

Wisconsin permits Expedited Partner Therapy (EPT): if you test positive for chlamydia or gonorrhea, your provider can give you medication (or a prescription) to pass to your partner, no separate exam or appointment needed for them.

Keeping a test private works the same in every state. Whether an STD test shows on insurance (the EOB), how to test anonymously, and self-pay options that leave no insurance trail don’t change by location.
