Dearborn County Health Department in Lawrenceburg runs testing for HIV, syphilis, gonorrhea, chlamydia, and hepatitis C at no charge, with Medicaid and private insurance also accepted. Appointments are required, and bacterial STIs can be treated the same visit.
The department absorbs costs through public health funding and accepts Medicaid and insurance as payers, which means every patient walks out without a bill regardless of coverage status. No means-testing, no tiered fee schedule. The operational model is built so the register closes at zero.
Beyond the standard bacterial and HIV tests, Dearborn County's panel includes hepatitis C antibody testing drawn and processed through the department's own workflow. That means a single appointment captures five infection categories (HIV, syphilis, gonorrhea, chlamydia, and hepatitis C) without splitting the visit across multiple sites.

Southeast Indiana Health Center in Batesville tests for HIV, syphilis, gonorrhea, chlamydia, herpes, and hepatitis A, B, and C, every test and visit at no charge, alongside same-visit treatment for bacterial infections and HPV and hepatitis vaccines, by appointment.
When a fee stands between someone and care, the result is a delayed test, an untreated infection, or a skipped follow-up appointment. At Southeast Indiana Health Center, every service (testing, treatment, vaccination) is provided at no charge, so cost never becomes the reason a visit doesn't happen.
Without language support, a missed nuance in a diagnosis or treatment plan can mean a prescription not filled or symptoms not reported accurately. Gaps with real clinical consequences. Southeast Indiana Health Center provides interpretation services for non-English languages as a standard part of care, keeping every appointment medically sound regardless of the language spoken.
Leaving herpes or hepatitis off the panel means an active infection can go undetected until it causes further harm, or until a separate appointment can be arranged elsewhere. Southeast Indiana Health Center tests for herpes and hepatitis A, B, and C alongside syphilis, gonorrhea, chlamydia, and HIV, closing those gaps in a single visit.

STD stats & rates
How reported STI rates in Ripley County, the county that includes Milan, compare with Indiana 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.
#88 of 92 Indiana counties for chlamydia, a higher rate than 4% of the state
| Infection | Ripley County | Indiana | United States |
|---|---|---|---|
| Chlamydia | 106.1 31 cases ▼ 78% | 491 | 492.2 |
| Gonorrhea | 24 7 cases ▼ 83% | 144 | 179.5 |
| Syphilis (P&S) | — no data | 8.7 | 15.8 |

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 Ripley County, chlamydia has fallen from 134.5 to 106.1 per 100,000 (21%), gonorrhea has fallen from 44.8 to 24 per 100,000 (46%), and P&S syphilis has held roughly steady from 3.4 to 3.4 per 100,000.

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 Ripley County.
Local HIV snapshot
Ripley County HIV care continuum (2023)
Ripley County recorded 0 new HIV diagnoses per 100,000 (2023), against 11.7 statewide and 13.7 nationally. Among Ripley County residents living with HIV, 92.3% are in care · 84.6% 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 Ripley County tests for syphilis.

Two things that actually depend on Indiana 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 Indiana, a minor of any age can consent to confidential STI testing and treatment on their own, no parental permission is required.
Indiana 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.
