Every Service Here Runs at Zero Cost
Sliding scale goes all the way to zero at Mary Lanning Healthcare, every service on the menu, from the full panel to counseling to vaccines, is available at no charge. That floor means cost never filters which care someone actually receives.
Spanish and Interpretation Reach Every Appointment
Mary Lanning Healthcare in Hastings offers Spanish directly and interpretation services for other languages, which means a patient's full medical history and treatment plan can be communicated with precision. Not summarized or compressed by a language gap.
PrEP and PEP Prescribed Where Others Only Test
Many STI clinics test and stop there, leaving prevention prescriptions to a separate provider. Mary Lanning Healthcare writes both PrEP and PEP on-site, so ongoing HIV prevention and post-exposure management are handled by the same clinical team doing the testing.

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.

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 Adams County tests for syphilis.

Prosser draws young people who work the land or work for the agricultural operations that anchor the county, not glamorous, but steady work that pays enough to build on. That steadiness also means health matters get put off, especially the kind that feel private or awkward to address with someone you might see at the feed store. STI testing in and around Prosser listed on this page offers the chance to get screened without that weight, and without waiting months for an appointment. The clinics and urgent care facilities serving the area understand that confidentiality isn't theater here, it's the difference between whether someone actually shows up.
A test result stays between you and the provider; there's no automatic cascade of notifications to employers, family, or the people you grew up with. That separation matters in a town where the landscape around Topeka Peak can feel both wide open and very small at once. Routine screening catches infections early, when treatment is straightforward and prevents complications down the line. Young adults in Prosser who want to know their status have access to testing without having to travel far or explain themselves to anyone but a healthcare provider.

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