Zero Cost Across Every Service Offered

Sliding-scale fees are common, but they still leave a number to calculate and a bill that can quietly discourage follow-through. Walker River Tribal Health Center charges nothing (not for the panel, not for vaccines, not for treatment) so the decision to come in is never about what's in your wallet.

Substance-Use Treatment Shares the Same Address

Walking away from an STI visit with a treatment plan but no support for substance use means the conditions driving ongoing risk stay unaddressed. Walker River Tribal Health Center holds both conversations in the same place, so a single visit can close two gaps instead of leaving one open until a second appointment happens, or doesn't.

Herpes and Hepatitis Are on the Panel Here

Leaving a clinic without herpes or hepatitis results means those infections stay undetected until symptoms force another visit, or another lab entirely. At Walker River Tribal Health Center, herpes, hepatitis B, and hepatitis C testing are part of the same appointment as gonorrhea, chlamydia, syphilis, and HIV, so nothing slips through the gap.

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.

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 Mineral County tests for syphilis.

About Schurz, NV

Reese sits at the quieter end of Schurz, where large households and deep roots in the land define daily life: most residents own their homes, but a workforce participation rate well below the national norm means many adults here are working irregular schedules, caregiving full-time, or navigating stretches between jobs. That rhythm shapes everything, including how easy it is to carve out time for a clinic visit. For younger adults, people in their late teens and twenties who make up a significant share of Schurz's population, that scheduling reality collides with a place that isn't built for walking anywhere. Getting tested isn't a matter of stepping a few blocks from an apartment; it means committing to a drive, usually along US 95 (Veterans Memorial Highway), to reach services listed on this page that serve communities in and around Schurz.

High unemployment locally also means cost sensitivity is real, and knowing which of listed options offers sliding-scale or free services before making that trip is genuinely worth the five minutes it takes to check. The range of options here matters precisely because no single appointment time or fee structure works for every household. Whether someone in Reese can leave midmorning on a weekday or only has a Saturday window, the variety listed means there's a realistic path, not just a theoretical one, to staying current.

Confidentiality & consent in Nevada

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

Two things that actually depend on Nevada 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 Nevada, 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)

Nevada 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.
