Fees & payment
Edgar County Public Health Department, Paris's public health department, runs STI care alongside the full infrastructure of county health: appointment-based testing for HIV, syphilis, gonorrhea, chlamydia, and hepatitis C, with same-visit treatment for bacterial infections, on a sliding-scale fee with all services provided at no fee.
Sliding-scale pricing at most clinics still lands somewhere above zero for plenty of people, a co-pay, a minimum charge, a balance after insurance. Edgar County Public Health Department in Paris charges nothing for any service it provides, full stop, regardless of what you carry in your wallet or what coverage you hold.
Someone paying cash and without a regular primary care provider has real standing to want hepatitis C screening handled in the same visit as the bacterial panel, not scheduled separately elsewhere. Edgar County Public Health Department tests for hepatitis C alongside HIV, syphilis, gonorrhea, and chlamydia, keeping a broader screen consolidated in one appointment.

STD stats & rates
How reported STI rates in Clark County, the county that includes Marshall, compare with Illinois 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.
#58 of 102 Illinois counties for chlamydia, a higher rate than 43% of the state
| Infection | Clark County | Illinois | United States |
|---|---|---|---|
| Chlamydia | 225.3 34 cases ▼ 60% | 557.7 | 492.2 |
| Gonorrhea | 92.8 14 cases ▼ 54% | 202.3 | 179.5 |
| Syphilis (P&S) | — no data | 11.6 | 15.8 |
| Syphilis (early) | — no data | 10.9 | 16 |
| Syphilis (late/unknown) | — no data | 26 | 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 Clark County, chlamydia has fallen from 232.9 to 225.3 per 100,000 (3%), gonorrhea has risen from 51.8 to 92.8 per 100,000 (79%), and P&S syphilis has held roughly steady from 6.5 to 6.5 per 100,000.
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 Clark County.
Local HIV snapshot
Clark County HIV care continuum (2023)
Clark County recorded 0 new HIV diagnoses per 100,000 (2023), against 14.7 statewide and 13.7 nationally. Among Clark County residents living with HIV, 90.9% are in care · 90.9% 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 Clark County tests for syphilis.

Data & references
Local context
A trip to the Clark County Museum or an afternoon at Marshall Community Pool & Park often means passing through the center of town, where access to straightforward sexual health care fits into an ordinary week. Young adults in Marshall (those navigating early careers, relationships, and the practical choices that come with them) benefit from testing available in and around Marshall listed on this page, where affordability matches the modest cost of living that defines the community. Confidentiality in a smaller town sometimes feels different than elsewhere. Clinics and providers in the area understand that discretion matters: your test results and the reason you sought them remain separate from the routines and gatherings that make up daily life here.
The people staffing these services know their role is to listen, test, and report only to you. Regular screening, especially for those sexually active, catches infections early when they're easiest to treat. Marshall residents can schedule appointments without delay, get results, and move forward with clarity. All without the friction that might otherwise keep someone waiting or uncertain.

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.
