New Mexico Department of Health

No ratings yet

Read full overview Show less

Every Service Runs on Zero-Dollar Billing

The no-fee structure here isn't a waiver applied at checkout: the clinic operates under a public health mandate that funds staff, supplies, and treatment from the outset. Sliding-scale and Medicaid acceptance exist alongside it, but the operational baseline is that no service generates a patient bill.

Spanish Is a Full Clinical Language Here

Spanish-language care at this clinic extends across the full scope of services, from test counseling through STI prevention education and harm reduction. That means clinical conversations (exposure history, treatment instructions, prevention planning) happen in Spanish as a staffed capability, not an add-on.

Herpes and Hepatitis Expand the Standard Panel

Beyond gonorrhea, chlamydia, syphilis, and HIV, this clinic tests for herpes and both hepatitis B and hepatitis C on-site. Hepatitis B vaccination is available at the same appointment, and hepatitis C testing feeds directly into care rather than requiring a separate referral chain.

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.

Confidentiality & consent in Texas

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

Two things that actually depend on Texas 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 Texas, 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)

Texas 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.
