Corporacion SANOS in Caguas runs on a sliding-scale fee and accepts Medicaid, Medicare, and private insurance, with appointments required. The panel covers HIV, syphilis, gonorrhea, chlamydia, hepatitis A, B, and C, and TB, bacterial STIs treated same visit, with all care delivered in Spanish.

Spanish Is the Only Language Here

When a clinic routes care through translation, nuance gets lost: symptoms get underreported, follow-up gets skipped, and gaps open in treatment. At Corporacion SANOS, every appointment runs natively in Spanish, so nothing between a patient's concern and the clinician's response depends on approximation.

PrEP Prescribed and Monitored On-Site

Corporacion SANOS prescribes and manages PrEP directly, meaning the HIV testing, lab work, and prescription renewals that sustain a PrEP regimen happen within the same practice. Continuity of monitoring, the quarterly HIV tests and kidney-function checks the regimen requires, stays with one clinical team in Caguas.

Hepatitis A, B, and C Tested Alongside the Core Four

For anyone without a regular primary-care provider, or paying out of pocket and consolidating visits, Corporacion SANOS tests hepatitis A, B, and C alongside HIV, syphilis, gonorrhea, and chlamydia. Vaccines for hepatitis A and B are also available on-site, closing the gap between a positive screen and prevention of further exposure.

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.

Yet, it is precisely this population that is most at risk of STIs, making access to testing a critical component of their overall health and well-being. As young adults continue to form relationships and navigate the challenges of independent living, convenient, low-friction screening is essential to protecting their health and preventing the spread of STIs.

Confidentiality & consent in Puerto Rico

Minor consent and partner treatment (EPT) under state law, plus how to test privately

Two things that actually depend on Puerto Rico 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 Puerto Rico, public health clinics provide confidential STI testing and treatment; ask the clinic directly about consent requirements for minors.

Can my partner be treated too? (EPT)

Expedited Partner Therapy (EPT) is potentially allowable in Puerto Rico: it is not expressly authorized, but not prohibited either. Ask your provider whether they will prescribe treatment for a partner without a separate visit.

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.
