Centerpoint Health in Middletown runs on appointments, so scheduling ahead means arriving to a visit that covers the full bacterial and viral panel (gonorrhea, chlamydia, syphilis, hepatitis B and C, rapid and conventional HIV) with same-visit treatment for bacterial infections, and all of it at no fee.
Centerpoint Health absorbs the cost of testing, treatment, vaccines, and prevention medications through its funding structure. No copay collected at the window, no balance generated afterward. Sliding-scale and donation options exist, but the baseline for every patient is zero out-of-pocket.
Centerpoint Health provides care directly in Spanish, which means clinical conversations (history, results, medication instructions) happen in the language the clinician and patient share. The downstream effect: nothing gets lost in relay when discussing treatment decisions or prevention plans.
Centerpoint Health carries standing capacity to prescribe PrEP for ongoing HIV prevention, PEP, and DoxyPEP. The antibiotic regimen for reducing bacterial STI acquisition. For someone without a regular provider who needs any of these medications managed and monitored in one place, this clinic handles prescribing, follow-up labs, and refills directly.

Premier Health in Franklin tests for HIV, syphilis, gonorrhea, chlamydia, herpes, hepatitis B, hepatitis C, and TB, with fees billed to Medicare or insurance and a standard fee schedule for others. Bacterial infections are treated same visit; appointments are required.
Plenty of testing sites confirm exposure and leave ongoing prevention to someone else's desk. Premier Health prescribes both PrEP for ongoing HIV prevention and PEP for post-exposure management, keeping the full prevention continuum at the same practice rather than splitting it across providers.
Premier Health's panel extends to seven pathogens: adding herpes simplex, hepatitis B, and hepatitis C alongside the standard bacterial and HIV tests, plus TB screening. Hepatitis C, when identified, is managed on-site rather than deferred to a specialist referral.

STD stats & rates
How reported STI rates in Warren County, the county that includes Lebanon, compare with Ohio 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.
#72 of 88 Ohio counties for chlamydia, a higher rate than 18% of the state
| Infection | Warren County | Ohio | United States |
|---|---|---|---|
| Chlamydia | 174.1 439 cases ▼ 62% | 461.7 | 492.2 |
| Gonorrhea | 36.1 91 cases ▼ 79% | 168 | 179.5 |
| Syphilis (P&S) | 5.9 15 cases ▼ 64% | 16.3 | 15.8 |
| Syphilis (early) | 3.6 9 cases ▼ 61% | 9.2 | 16 |
| Syphilis (late/unknown) | 2.4 6 cases ▼ 85% | 16 | 29.5 |
Rates per 100,000 population, 2023. Source: CDC NCHHSTP AtlasPlus (county, state & U.S., all-ages basis). Population figures: U.S. Census Bureau ACS. These figures are the latest available surveillance estimates. Bars are scaled to the highest rate shown.
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 Warren County, chlamydia has fallen from 199.3 to 174.1 per 100,000 (13%), gonorrhea has fallen from 64.8 to 36.1 per 100,000 (44%), and P&S syphilis has risen from 4.1 to 5.9 per 100,000 (44%).
The 2020 dip reflects reduced pandemic-era screening, not lower transmission. Source: CDC NCHHSTP AtlasPlus (county, state & U.S., all-ages basis).
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 Warren County.
Local HIV snapshot
Warren County HIV care continuum (2020)
Warren County recorded 4.9 new HIV diagnoses per 100,000 (2020), against 8.8 statewide and 13.7 nationally. Among Warren County residents living with HIV, 79.3% are in care · 65.4% 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 Warren County tests for syphilis.

Data & references
Local context
South Broadway stretches past the Lebanon Commercial Historic District on a quiet weekday morning, and most of the testing options listed here sit within a short drive along US 42 or West Main Street. That drive is worth planning deliberately. Lebanon skews toward owners, a majority hold mortgages on homes here, but a substantial share of residents rent at modest monthly costs that leave little cushion for unexpected medical bills. For younger adults in their late teens and twenties, who account for a disproportionate share of STI diagnoses everywhere, that budget reality shapes whether screening happens at all.
The clinics on this page vary widely on fees, so scrolling the cost column before you go removes one genuine obstacle. With nearly two-thirds of Lebanon's adults actively working and unemployment exceptionally low, packed schedules are the norm; evening and weekend hours become less of a convenience and more of a prerequisite. Household life here tends to run through families: the average home holds more than three people, and nearly half of adults are married. Routine testing fits that context: a clear result protects partners and, in many households, the people they come home to every night near Colonial Park or out along SR 63.
Getting there
At 6.26/20 on the EPA walkability index, day-to-day errands in Lebanon 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 Ohio 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 Ohio, a minor of any age can consent to confidential STI testing and treatment on their own, no parental permission is required.
Ohio 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.
