MercyOne in Silvis tests for HIV, syphilis, chlamydia, gonorrhea, herpes, hepatitis B, hepatitis C, and TB on a sliding-scale fee; insurance is also accepted. Bacterial STIs are treated same visit, and appointments are required.
Plenty of testing sites can confirm an exposure but hand off prevention to a separate provider. MercyOne in Silvis prescribes both PrEP and PEP on-site, keeping ongoing HIV prevention and post-exposure response in the same clinical relationship rather than scattered across multiple offices.
When hepatitis C is detected, MercyOne in Silvis moves directly into treatment. Prescribing antivirals and monitoring response through the same clinical team that ran the test. Patients don't need to re-establish care elsewhere to access a cure.
MercyOne in Silvis tests for herpes, hepatitis B, and hepatitis C alongside the standard bacterial infections, which means conditions that often go undetected in a basic screening get a diagnosis, and, where treatment exists, can be addressed right away.

Henry and Stark County Health Department, Colona's public health department, anchors its STI services in the same infrastructure built for community-wide disease response: meaning gonorrhea, chlamydia, syphilis, HIV, herpes, and hepatitis B are tested on a sliding-scale fee with same-visit bacterial treatment, by appointment, with PrEP and PEP available for prevention.
Plenty of testing sites hand off prevention medication to a separate provider entirely. Henry and Stark County Health Department writes PrEP and PEP prescriptions directly, keeping ongoing HIV prevention within the same department where testing and counseling already happen.
The testing panel here runs serological and culture-based screening for herpes simplex alongside hepatitis B antigen testing, both requiring specific assay types that go beyond basic nucleic acid amplification. That means a single appointment at Henry and Stark County Health Department covers six distinct pathogens rather than four.

The Project of the Quad Cities in Moline runs the full bacterial panel (gonorrhea, chlamydia, syphilis) with same-visit treatment when results call for it, alongside rapid and conventional HIV testing and hepatitis B and C screening, all at no fee to anyone who walks in.
Every service The Project of the Quad Cities provides (testing, treatment, PrEP, DoxyPEP, harm reduction) carries no charge, and that extends directly to hepatitis C treatment, meaning a chronic, manageable infection doesn't stall at diagnosis for lack of funds.
Spanish-language care at The Project of the Quad Cities is staffed directly, so counseling, medication adherence education, and treatment conversations happen in Spanish with clinic personnel, not routed through a separate service, and interpretation for other languages is coordinated on-site as well.
The Project of the Quad Cities holds Ryan White Program funding, which means someone without a regular HIV provider or insurance can receive not just testing but ongoing antiretroviral treatment and medication adherence support. Care that continues well past a single appointment.

STD stats & rates
How reported STI rates in Rock Island County, the county that includes East Moline, compare with Illinois and U.S. averages, based on the most recent 2023 surveillance data. An estimated ~23% of residents are aged 15–34 (ACS), the age group with the highest reported chlamydia and gonorrhea rates nationally.
#13 of 102 Illinois counties for chlamydia, a higher rate than 87% of the state

| Chlamydia | 542.4 766 cases ▼ 3% | 557.7 | 492.2 |
| Gonorrhea | 191.9 271 cases ▼ 5% | 202.3 | 179.5 |

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 Rock Island County, chlamydia has risen from 474.9 to 542.4 per 100,000 (14%), gonorrhea has fallen from 225.3 to 191.9 per 100,000 (15%), and P&S syphilis has risen from 4.1 to 13.5 per 100,000 (229%).

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 Rock Island County.
Local HIV snapshot
Rock Island County HIV care continuum (2023)
Rock Island County recorded 11.8 new HIV diagnoses per 100,000 (2023), against 14.7 statewide and 13.7 nationally. Among Rock Island County residents living with HIV, 83.5% are in care · 78.1% 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 Rock Island County tests for syphilis.

Data & references
Local context
Along 1st Avenue, where most households are owner-occupied and nearly half of adults are married, health decisions here tend to be made in the context of family. Shared schedules, shared budgets, shared stakes. With an average household running just over three people, a single positive result isn't a private matter; it ripples. That reality makes routine screening less about personal habit and more about the people you come home to.
Rock Island County's STI figures reflect a pattern common across the Midwest: younger adults, people in their late teens and twenties still building relationships and navigating partners, carry a disproportionate share of new diagnoses. East Moline's population skews younger than many surrounding communities, which means that cohort is genuinely present here, not a statistical abstraction. With unemployment running notably above national norms and labor-force participation below it, discretionary spending and flexible time both face real pressure. At $658 a month in typical rent, a household budget leaves little cushion for unexpected medical bills, making the low- and no-cost options listed on this page worth knowing before you need them.
East Moline's spread, from Colona out past Campbell's Island State Memorial, means most trips require a car, and the clinics listed here vary considerably by distance and hours. Knowing which locations open early or take walk-ins along IL 84 can be the difference between a Wednesday that works and one that doesn't even start with a phone call.
Getting there
At 7.17/20 on the EPA walkability index, day-to-day errands in East Moline 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 Illinois 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 Illinois, a minor aged 12 or older can consent to confidential STI testing and treatment on their own, no parental permission is required.
Illinois 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.
