Jefferson Health in Marlton screens for HIV, syphilis, gonorrhea, chlamydia, hepatitis A, B, and C, and TB on a sliding-scale fee that adjusts to income, with insurance and Medicaid accepted; bacterial infections are treated the same visit, and appointments are required.
Jefferson Health carries in-house Spanish-language clinical services alongside interpretation access for additional languages. That staffing means counseling, medication adherence education, and PrEP discussions happen in the language a patient speaks. Not routed through a separate scheduling step or delayed by availability.
Jefferson Health holds the standing capacity to prescribe and manage PrEP directly, making it a single destination for anyone who needs ongoing HIV prevention medication but lacks a regular prescribing provider. Cash-pay patients work within the same sliding-scale structure that covers testing.
Jefferson Health runs hepatitis A, B, and C testing alongside the standard bacterial and HIV panel. Hepatitis A and B vaccines are administered on-site, so a reactive hepatitis B result can move immediately into vaccination and monitoring conversations. No separate appointment at a different facility.

CAMcare Health in Clementon pairs STI testing with same-visit treatment for bacterial infections: gonorrhea, chlamydia, and syphilis resolved without a follow-up trip. The full panel runs on a sliding-scale fee accepted alongside Medicaid, Medicare, and private insurance; appointments are required.
When a language barrier means questions go unasked and instructions go misunderstood, an STI diagnosis can stay unmanaged. Not because care wasn't offered, but because the exchange broke down. CAMcare delivers full STI care in Spanish, so nothing gets lost between the test, the result, and the treatment plan.
Leaving hepatitis off the panel means a separate appointment, a separate bill, and a gap where an infection sits undetected. CAMcare tests for hepatitis A, B, and C alongside the standard bacterial and HIV screen, and carries hepatitis A and B vaccines, so the full picture comes from one visit.

Burlington County Health Department in Westampton runs STI testing and treatment through a public health department, where the full panel (gonorrhea, chlamydia, syphilis, herpes, and rapid HIV) is available without an appointment, with same-visit treatment for bacterial infections, and every service at no fee.
When cost sits between a person and treatment, infections go unmanaged and care stalls. Burlington County Health Department charges nothing (not for testing, not for treatment, not for the visit itself) so the gap between a positive result and a treated one is measured in days, not dollars.
Burlington County Health Department provides care in Spanish as a standing clinical capability, not a scheduled accommodation. For someone without a regular provider who needs to discuss symptoms, understand a diagnosis, or navigate treatment, that fluency is present at every point of the visit.
Through Ryan White funding, Burlington County Health Department supports HIV care that extends well past a rapid test result: into prescription management, viral load monitoring, and sustained treatment access. The funding structure keeps those services linked and operational within the same program rather than handed off.

STD stats & rates
How reported STI rates in Burlington County, the county that includes Medford Lakes, compare with New Jersey and U.S. averages, based on the most recent 2023 surveillance data. An estimated ~21% of residents are aged 15–34 (ACS), the age group with the highest reported chlamydia and gonorrhea rates nationally.
#10 of 21 New Jersey counties for chlamydia, a higher rate than 52% of the state
| Infection | Burlington County | New Jersey | United States |
|---|---|---|---|
| Chlamydia | 333.8 1,566 cases ▼ 13% | 384.1 | 492.2 |
| Gonorrhea | 109.3 513 cases ≈ the state average | 109.1 | 179.5 |
| Syphilis (P&S) | 5.1 24 cases ▼ 37% | 8.1 | 15.8 |
| Syphilis (early) | 6.2 29 cases ▼ 40% | 10.4 | 16 |
| Syphilis (late/unknown) | 8.7 41 cases ▼ 46% | 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 Burlington County, chlamydia has risen from 322.2 to 333.8 per 100,000 (4%), gonorrhea has risen from 99.6 to 109.3 per 100,000 (10%), and P&S syphilis has fallen from 6.9 to 5.1 per 100,000 (26%).
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 Burlington County.
Local HIV snapshot
Burlington County HIV care continuum (2023)
Burlington County recorded 8.4 new HIV diagnoses per 100,000 (2023), against 11.9 statewide and 13.7 nationally. Among Burlington County residents living with HIV, 70.1% are in care · 64.2% 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 Burlington County tests for syphilis.

Local resources & officials
Data & references
Local context
Leon E. Todd Memorial Park anchors a borough where nearly six in ten adults are married and households average just over three people: meaning health decisions here tend to be made in the context of partners, shared schedules, and family logistics rather than individually. That household structure matters when it comes to sexual health. With an unemployment rate that leaves a meaningful share of working-age residents navigating job searches alongside other obligations, and a workforce where most people are employed full-time, carving out time for routine screening competes with genuinely crowded days.
For younger adults still building relationships and sexual histories, that extra planning step is real. Homeownership here runs extraordinarily high, suggesting deep community roots and long-term stakes in personal health. Burlington County's STI figures reflect patterns common across suburban New Jersey, and someone who has lived on the same street for a decade, raised a family, and stayed put has every reason to treat periodic screening as part of the longer story of life in Medford Lakes, not a reaction to any single event.
Getting there

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 New Jersey 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 New Jersey, a minor can consent to confidential STI testing and treatment at any age, and to HIV testing at age 13 or older; a provider may notify a parent, and must do so where sexual assault is involved.
New Jersey 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.
