Zero-Dollar Care Across Every Service Line
Every test, treatment, and vaccine administered at Wasatch County Health Department (HPV, hepatitis A, hepatitis B, STI treatment, TB care) carries a $0 charge regardless of insurance status or income. No service is priced differently from another.
Spanish-Speaking Staff on the Care Team
Spanish-language services at Wasatch County Health Department are staffed directly into the clinic, meaning clinical conversations (test counseling, STI prevention education, treatment instructions) happen with a provider, not through a workaround channel.
Hepatitis C Testing Alongside the Standard Bacterial Panel
Beyond gonorrhea, chlamydia, and syphilis, Wasatch County Health Department runs a hepatitis C antibody test as a named panel item. A concrete addition that means liver-disease exposure gets documented and addressed in the same appointment as bacterial STI screening.
Beyond the dedicated testing centers above: at-home kits by mail, hospital labs certified for STI testing, local clinicians who can order a panel during a regular visit, pharmacies for self-test kits and prescriptions, and online PrEP & treatment.
The nearest testing center is about 9 miles away; if you'd rather skip the trip, an at-home kit ships to Independence, you collect the sample privately, and mail it back to a CLIA-certified lab. Results come online in days, with a clinician available if anything is positive. Same labs as a clinic, no waiting room, and you can read how accurate at-home STD tests are before you order.
Want a free option first? The CDC-supported TakeMeHome (opens in a new tab) program mails free at-home HIV self-test kits, and, in many areas, free STI kits, to your door, with no insurance or payment needed. The paid kits below add broader panels and faster turnaround.

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.

Pregnant or planning to be?
Congenital syphilis is the fastest-rising STI: what to test, and when
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 Wasatch County tests for syphilis.

Independence's neighborhoods carry the quiet hum of a place where most residents have put down roots: nearly four in five households own their homes, and the modest property values that made that possible also shape who stays and who moves on. That stability draws multigenerational households and married couples, but it means the younger adults passing through (people in their late teens and twenties navigating early relationships, first jobs, or college years) are often a smaller, less visible slice of the community. Those are also the years when STI transmission peaks, and when regular screening tends to slip lowest on the list of things anyone feels urgency about. Getting tested in Independence takes deliberate planning.
Not something that happens on a lunch walk. With just over half of residents in the labor force, schedules vary widely: some households run on flexible time, others are stretched thin. Rent at the local level is real money, and even a modest copay can give someone pause. The options listed on this page span different cost structures and hours precisely because no single clinic fits every situation in a spread-out, owner-occupied community like this one.

Confidentiality & consent in Utah
Minor consent and partner treatment (EPT) under state law, plus how to test privately
Two things that actually depend on Utah 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 Utah, 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)
Utah 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.
