Clarity in Mooresville tests for HIV, syphilis, gonorrhea, chlamydia, herpes, and hepatitis, and treats bacterial infections the same day, with every service provided at no fee, whether you pay with insurance, Medicaid, or nothing at all. Walk-ins welcome.
Clarity's no-fee model isn't a waiver program or a situational discount: the clinic is funded and staffed to absorb the full cost of every test, treatment, and follow-up visit for every patient. Nothing is billed after the fact, and no one is means-tested at the door.
Clarity tests for herpes and hepatitis A, B, and C alongside the standard bacterial and HIV screen, which means conditions that often go undetected for years have a real chance of turning up, and being addressed, in a single visit.

STD stats & rates
How reported STI rates in Morgan County, the county that includes Bethany, compare with Indiana and U.S. averages, based on the most recent 2023 surveillance data. An estimated ~56% of residents are aged 15–34 (ACS), the age group with the highest reported chlamydia and gonorrhea rates nationally.
#51 of 92 Indiana counties for chlamydia, a higher rate than 45% of the state
| Infection | Morgan County | Indiana | United States |
|---|---|---|---|
| Chlamydia | 245.8 180 cases ▼ 50% | 491 | 492.2 |
| Gonorrhea | 61.5 45 cases ▼ 57% | 144 | 179.5 |
| Syphilis (P&S) | 6.8 5 cases ▼ 22% | 8.7 | 15.8 |
| Syphilis (early) | 9.6 7 cases ▲ 1% | 9.5 | 16 |
| Syphilis (late/unknown) | 2.7 2 cases ▼ 82% | 15.2 | 29.5 |

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.
Between 2020 and 2023 in Morgan County, chlamydia has risen from 192.3 to 245.8 per 100,000 (28%), gonorrhea has risen from 61.3 to 61.5 per 100,000 (0%), and P&S syphilis has risen from 4.2 to 6.8 per 100,000 (62%).

Community health context
Sources: CDC PLACES (ZIP), County Health Rankings, CDC/ATSDR SVI, HRSA HPSA, HRSA MUA/P, Neighborhood Atlas ADI. Lower insurance coverage, fewer routine checkups, and a thin primary-care ratio all raise the value of low-cost public clinics and at-home testing in Morgan County.
Local HIV snapshot
Morgan County HIV care continuum (2022)
Morgan County recorded 13 new HIV diagnoses per 100,000 (2022), against 11.7 statewide and 13.7 nationally. Among Morgan County residents living with HIV, 82.1% are in care · 79.1% are virally suppressed. Early, routine testing is what moves these numbers: it is the entry point to PrEP, treatment, and viral suppression.
Sources: AIDSVu (Emory/Gilead) · CDC AHEAD · CDC AtlasPlus · CDC NCHHSTP AtlasPlus (county care continuum). The CDC recommends everyone aged 13–64 test for HIV at least once: every lab and clinic listed above offers HIV testing, and free rapid HIV testing is available at a local health department.
Congenital syphilis, passed from parent to baby in pregnancy, is the fastest-rising STI in the country. U.S. cases climbed from 2,163 in 2020 to 3,882 in 2023. It is almost entirely preventable: the CDC recommends a syphilis test at the first prenatal visit, and every clinic and lab listed for Morgan County tests for syphilis.

Local resources & officials
Data & references
Local context
Robb Hill and the quiet residential stretches surrounding it set the tone for daily life in Bethany: a community where nearly everyone owns their home, households run larger than the national average, and the calendar tends to fill with the rhythms of family rather than a commute to a nearby clinic. What makes that planning worthwhile is who lives here. More than half of Bethany's residents are in the years, late teens through their early thirties, when STIs circulate most actively and when a single untreated infection can quietly complicate future health.
The good news is that options listed on this page extend well into the surrounding Morgan County region, offering real geographic spread for a place where every appointment requires getting in the car. The workforce picture adds one more layer: with a meaningful share of households not participating in the traditional nine-to-five labor force, schedules in Bethany are more varied than they might look on paper: some residents have genuine midday flexibility, while others balance caregiving or part-time work across unpredictable hours. listed options carry evening or weekend availability, which means the drive to get tested doesn't have to compete with the obligations that define a typical Bethany week.
Getting there
At 7.85/20 on the EPA walkability index, day-to-day errands in Bethany generally mean driving: plan on a car or rideshare to reach a clinic, and check each listing's hours and phone before you go.

Two things that actually depend on Indiana 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).
In Indiana, a minor of any age can consent to confidential STI testing and treatment on their own, no parental permission is required.
Indiana 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.
