Indy Family Planning Center in New Castle folds STI testing (gonorrhea, chlamydia, syphilis, and rapid or conventional HIV) into ongoing family planning care, with a sliding scale that applies to everyone and same-visit treatment for bacterial infections. Walk-ins are welcome, and interpretation services are available for non-English speakers.
Without interpretation woven into a clinic's workflow, a non-English speaker often leaves with incomplete instructions, misunderstood test results, or untreated infections. At Indy Family Planning Center, interpretation services are part of the care itself, not an afterthought, so diagnosis, treatment decisions, and follow-up land clearly the first time.
PrEP at Indy Family Planning Center means a prescription paired with the HIV testing and renal-function monitoring required to keep it safe and effective, not just an initial script handed off without structure. PEP is also available, and coverage gaps for the uninsured are addressed through dedicated PrEP assistance so cost doesn't interrupt the regimen.

Henry County Health Department in New Castle runs STI care through the county's public health infrastructure: appointments required, gonorrhea, chlamydia, and syphilis treated same visit, with HIV and hepatitis C testing, all at no fee regardless of insurance status.
Henry County Health Department is funded and staffed to absorb the full cost of every service it offers (testing, treatment, vaccines) so the billing department never generates a patient-facing charge. No sliding-scale math, no residual balance: the cost is zero across the board.
Beyond gonorrhea, chlamydia, syphilis, and HIV, Henry County also tests for hepatitis C at the same appointment, which means a single visit surfaces a bloodborne infection that often goes undetected for years without a dedicated test order.

STD stats & rates
How reported STI rates in Henry County, the county that includes Spiceland, compare with Indiana and U.S. averages, based on the most recent 2023 surveillance data. An estimated ~30% of residents are aged 15–34 (ACS), the age group with the highest reported chlamydia and gonorrhea rates nationally.
#31 of 92 Indiana counties for chlamydia, a higher rate than 66% of the state
| Infection | Henry County | Indiana | United States |
|---|---|---|---|
| Chlamydia | 312.7 153 cases ▼ 36% | 491 | 492.2 |
| Gonorrhea | 22.5 11 cases ▼ 84% | 144 | 179.5 |
| Syphilis (P&S) | 4.1 2 cases ▼ 53% | 8.7 | 15.8 |
| Syphilis (early) | 4.1 2 cases ▼ 57% | 9.5 | 16 |

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 Henry County, chlamydia has risen from 222.8 to 312.7 per 100,000 (40%), gonorrhea has fallen from 73.6 to 22.5 per 100,000 (69%), and P&S syphilis has risen from 2 to 4.1 per 100,000 (105%).

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 Henry County.
Local HIV snapshot
Henry County HIV care continuum (2020)
Henry County recorded 0 new HIV diagnoses per 100,000 (2020), against 11.7 statewide and 13.7 nationally. Among Henry County residents living with HIV, 87.5% are in care · 70.3% 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 Henry County tests for syphilis.

Data & references
Local context
Getting tested for STIs in Spiceland means thinking beyond the town limits. The clinics and providers listed on this page serve residents from here and the surrounding area, but the nearest full-service sexual health screening often requires a short drive. A reality many longtime residents know well. For those who've built lives here, raised families, and stayed, that extra distance is part of the calculus of care in a smaller community.
Young adults in Spiceland (whether they're establishing themselves locally, working nearby, or in relationships that began in high school) benefit from confidential testing without the weight of small-town visibility. The providers available in and around Spiceland understand that screening is routine medical care, not something that needs to travel through neighborhood networks. Results stay yours, and the process is straightforward. Multigenerational households are common here, which is why privacy during testing and after matters in concrete ways.
Spiceland's stability and tight community bonds are real assets; so is the ability to seek care on your own terms, away from assumptions. Testing clinics and health centers within reach offer that separation: professional, confidential, and designed for people who simply need to know their status.

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.
