Clinton County Health Department in Frankfort delivers rapid HIV testing, gonorrhea and chlamydia testing with same-visit treatment for bacterial infections, and hepatitis C screening. All on an appointment basis. Every test and service carries no fee, with insurance accepted when available.
When cost sits between a person and treatment, bacterial infections go unaddressed and follow-up appointments never happen. At Clinton County Health Department, no service generates a charge: testing, same-visit bacterial treatment, and vaccines all land at zero, so nothing about the bill interrupts the care.
Gonorrhea and chlamydia testing is the floor at most STI clinics, hepatitis C screening rarely makes the list. Clinton County Health Department adds hepatitis C to its panel alongside rapid HIV, giving a fuller picture of bloodborne exposure in a single appointment.

Franciscan Health in Lafayette accepts Medicaid and most insurance, with sliding-scale fees otherwise, and tests for HIV, syphilis, gonorrhea, chlamydia, hepatitis A, B, and C, and TB. Bacterial infections treated the same visit, by appointment.
Franciscan Health treats hepatitis C on-site, which means a confirmed diagnosis moves into a managed treatment plan within the same system: no separate specialist search, no second intake, no gap between knowing and addressing it.
Without access to PrEP, PEP, and DoxyPEP at a single clinic, a patient often leaves one appointment with a referral to another, and a gap in coverage while that next appointment waits. Franciscan Health in Lafayette prescribes all three, keeping prevention continuous rather than fractured across providers.
Interpretation services for non-English languages are available at Franciscan Health, meaning the full scope of care (TB treatment, hepatitis management, DoxyPEP counseling) remains clinically accessible regardless of the language a patient speaks.

STD stats & rates
How reported STI rates in Tippecanoe County, the county that includes Clarks Hill, compare with Indiana and U.S. averages, based on the most recent 2023 surveillance data. An estimated ~25% of residents are aged 15–34 (ACS), the age group with the highest reported chlamydia and gonorrhea rates nationally.
#8 of 92 Indiana counties for chlamydia, a higher rate than 91% of the state
| Infection | Tippecanoe County | Indiana | United States |
|---|---|---|---|
| Chlamydia | 547.2 1,033 cases ▲ 11% | 491 | 492.2 |
| Gonorrhea | 131.4 248 cases ▼ 9% | 144 | 179.5 |
| Syphilis (P&S) | 3.7 7 cases ▼ 57% | 8.7 | 15.8 |
| Syphilis (early) | 6.9 13 cases ▼ 27% | 9.5 | 16 |
| Syphilis (late/unknown) | 10.1 19 cases ▼ 34% | 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 Tippecanoe County, chlamydia has risen from 537.4 to 547.2 per 100,000 (2%), gonorrhea has fallen from 188.5 to 131.4 per 100,000 (30%), and P&S syphilis has fallen from 14 to 3.7 per 100,000 (74%).

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 Tippecanoe County.
Local HIV snapshot
Tippecanoe County HIV care continuum (2023)
Tippecanoe County recorded 4.9 new HIV diagnoses per 100,000 (2023), against 11.7 statewide and 13.7 nationally. Among Tippecanoe County residents living with HIV, 80.6% are in care · 75.3% 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 Tippecanoe County tests for syphilis.

Data & references
Local context
Colfax Park sits at the quiet center of a town where most households own their homes and have for years, neighbors who recognize each other, routines that don't shift much. That stability is genuine, but it can make sexual health screening feel like something for somewhere else, somewhere more anonymous. It isn't. Clarks Hill's younger adults (people building relationships in their twenties, navigating early careers) are exactly the group for whom consistent, low-key access to testing makes the most practical difference, and Tippecanoe County's STI picture makes that case plainly.
The economic texture here shapes how people move through their week. With a meaningful share of households carrying unemployment and most earners nowhere near six figures, a $683 monthly rent is a real line item. Clinic fees and travel costs get weighed against other necessities. At the same time, nearly two in three residents are active in the workforce, often in jobs that don't flex easily for mid-morning appointments.
That's precisely where the options listed on this page earn their keep. Thirty-six choices, spread across a range of hours and fee structures, mean a working resident with a rigid shift can route along Sagamore Parkway South and find something that fits a Thursday after five rather than a Thursday off. The range isn't decorative, it's the margin between a test that gets scheduled and one that waits indefinitely for a perfect opening that never comes.
Getting there
At 2.54/20 on the EPA walkability index, day-to-day errands in Clarks Hill generally mean driving: plan on a car or rideshare to reach a clinic, and check each listing's hours and phone before you go.

Source: Medicare Clinical Laboratory Fee Schedule, CMS, 2025 rates (data.cms.gov). Reference rate for the lab assay only: a clinic visit, sample collection, or a bundled multi-test panel may cost more. Medicaid and most insurers cover STD screening at no out-of-pocket cost.
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.
