Evergreen Health in Jamestown runs on a sliding-scale fee structure and accepts Medicaid and private insurance, with no fixed price floor. The standard panel covers rapid and conventional HIV, syphilis, gonorrhea, chlamydia, and both rapid and standard hepatitis C. Bacterial infections treated same visit, appointments required.
Ryan White Act funding at Evergreen Health underwrites a continuous care structure: a provider prescribes and monitors antiretroviral therapy, tracks viral load and CD4 counts over time, and coordinates medication adherence counseling. All within the same practice rather than split across separate referral points.
Evergreen Health prescribes both PrEP and PEP on-site, which means the clinic also handles the required HIV and kidney-function testing before initiating PrEP, manages the dosing schedule, and schedules the follow-up labs every three months that keep a prescription active and safe.
Diagnosing hepatitis C and treating it are two different clinical commitments, many testing sites hand off after a positive result. Evergreen Health carries patients through to curative direct-acting antiviral treatment on-site, with both rapid and conventional hep C testing as the entry point to that full course of care.

An estimated ~24% of residents are aged 15–34 (ACS), the age group with the highest reported chlamydia and gonorrhea rates nationally.
#67 of 67 Pennsylvania counties for chlamydia, among the lowest in the state

| Gonorrhea | 8 3 cases ▼ 94% | 144.7 | 179.5 |

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 Warren County, chlamydia has fallen from 134.8 to 53.2 per 100,000 (61%), gonorrhea has fallen from 31.1 to 8 per 100,000 (74%), and P&S syphilis has held roughly steady from 5.3 to 5.3 per 100,000.
The 2020 dip reflects reduced pandemic-era screening, not lower transmission. Source: CDC NCHHSTP AtlasPlus (county, state & U.S., all-ages basis).
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 Warren County.
Local HIV snapshot
Warren County HIV care continuum (2022)
Warren County recorded 0 new HIV diagnoses per 100,000 (2022), against 8.3 statewide and 13.7 nationally. Among Warren County residents living with HIV, 85% are in care · 70% 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 Warren County tests for syphilis.

Data & references
Local context
Pennsylvania Avenue West threads past Downtown Warren with the kind of lived-in steadiness you'd expect from a small city where home values and rents land well below state averages. That cost reality shapes daily choices in practical ways: when rent is modest and a large share of households run on a single income or a stretched two-earner budget, a co-pay or a long drive to a clinic still registers as a real consideration, not a trivial one.
About four in ten residents here rent rather than own, and the workforce participation rate means a significant portion of adults are fitting medical appointments around shift schedules or hourly work. Young adults in their late teens and twenties, a group that sees the steepest STI incidence nationally, form a meaningful slice of Warren's population, and for them the calculus of getting screened often comes down to whether an appointment is reachable on a weekday without losing a half-day of pay. The options listed on this page cover a range of hours and fee structures, which matters when most households here are not in the higher-income bracket.
Reaching any of these sites likely means a drive along Market Street or Pennsylvania Avenue East, so knowing ahead of time which clinic opens earliest or offers sliding-scale fees makes the difference in whether a visit gets scheduled at all before the next billing cycle arrives.
Getting there
At 7.67/20 on the EPA walkability index, day-to-day errands in Warren generally mean driving: plan on a car or rideshare to reach a clinic, and check each listing's hours and phone before you go.

Two things that actually depend on Pennsylvania 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 Pennsylvania, a minor of any age can consent to confidential STI testing and treatment on their own, no parental permission is required.
Pennsylvania 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.
