Read full overviewShow less
Whether you're uninsured, between coverage, or simply paying out of pocket, the University of Miami Miller School of Medicine extends its full range of testing, counseling, and HIV medical treatment without a fee attached to any of it. No partial carve-outs, no services excepted.
For someone whose primary language is Haitian Creole or Spanish, the clinic delivers services directly in both: meaning medical history, test counseling, and HIV treatment discussions happen in the language you use to make health decisions, without a go-between layer.
PrEP here isn't a prescription handed off without support: the Miller School's clinical team prescribes, monitors adherence, and conducts the regular HIV and kidney-function testing that sustained PrEP use requires; PEP is also available for time-sensitive prevention needs.

Every Test and Treatment Carries Zero Cost
Free HIV, hepatitis B, and hepatitis C testing sit alongside free STI testing, and that zero-cost structure extends to treatment, PrEP, DoxyPEP, and PEP without carving out exceptions. Ryan White funding and Medicaid acceptance together sustain the full service scope at no charge, regardless of a patient's insurance status.
Clinical staff at University of Miami Health System conduct appointments in both Haitian Creole and Spanish, which means medication adherence counseling, PrEP education, and HIV/AIDS medical management proceed in the language a patient uses to think through dosing decisions. Without relay or delay.
Ryan White Covers HIV from Diagnosis Through Treatment
Many sexual health programs hand off an HIV-positive result to a separate specialty system. University of Miami Health System holds that entire arc (rapid and conventional HIV testing, HIV/AIDS medical treatment, and medication adherence education) within one Ryan White-funded program, so the care relationship doesn't reset at diagnosis.

Every Service Carries a Zero Balance
When cost lingers at the edge of every decision (whether to book the appointment, fill the prescription, or follow through on treatment) an unpaid balance can quietly become an untreated condition. At HealthyMD, no service generates a bill: testing, treatment, prevention, and ongoing HIV care all run at no charge.
PrEP, PEP, and DoxyPEP Prescribed and Monitored Here
HealthyMD prescribes and monitors all three evidence-based prevention medications: PrEP (the daily antiretroviral that blocks HIV acquisition), PEP (the post-exposure antiretroviral course), and DoxyPEP (the doxycycline regimen taken after potential bacterial STI exposure). Each requires clinical follow-up, and that follow-up happens at HealthyMD. Not handed off.
Hepatitis C Diagnosis and Full Treatment in One Clinic
HealthyMD carries standing capacity to both diagnose and treat hepatitis C on-site, including rapid testing and the antiviral medications that clear the infection. For anyone without a primary care provider or managing costs out of pocket, that means the full arc of care, from reactive result to completed treatment, stays within a single clinic.

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.

Miami-Dade County recorded 44.3 new HIV diagnoses per 100,000 (2023), against 22.7 statewide and 13.7 nationally. Among Miami-Dade County residents living with HIV, 92% know their status · 68.9% are in care · 60.5% are virally suppressed. Early, routine testing is what moves these numbers: it is the entry point to PrEP, treatment, and viral suppression.

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 Miami-Dade County tests for syphilis.

Domino games at Máximo Gómez Park wind down around dusk, and by then most people in Little Havana are already planning tomorrow around work, family, and rent. That last pressure is real and specific: with roughly seven in ten residents renting rather than owning, monthly costs shape every discretionary decision, including health ones. When a household is running on a tight budget in a city where a typical rent claim a significant share of take-home pay, the calculus around spending an afternoon at a clinic can feel pointed. That calculus matters especially for Miami's large population of young adults, people in their late teens and twenties for whom STI risk is statistically highest and for whom testing most often gets postponed simply because the day is already spoken for.
Average households here are larger than the national norm, which often means childcare, shared commutes, and compressed schedules, not a lot of loose hours on a Wednesday. Miami's labor-force participation rate also means that a meaningful share of adults are outside standard employment altogether, working gig shifts or variable hours along corridors like Northwest 7th Avenue or in the dense commercial blocks of Brickell and Downtown. For someone clocking out late near the Dolphin Expressway or finishing a double before heading back toward Wynwood, a clinic slot that doesn't require a day off is the practical difference that determines whether screening happens this month.

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