Every Line Item Bills at Zero

Matthew 25 AIDS Services carries a no-fee structure across its entire scope: HIV testing, hepatitis C testing, STI treatment, PrEP, hepatitis A and B vaccines, and medication adherence counseling all bill at zero. Nothing in the service list is carved out at a different rate.

ASL-Fluent Staff and Eight Language Options

Matthew 25 AIDS Services staffs care in American Sign Language and provides direct-language services in Chinese, French, Haitian Creole, Spanish, Portuguese, Tagalog, and Vietnamese: meaning clinical conversations, counseling, and adherence education happen in the primary language, not through a relay.

PrEP Prescribed and Covered On-Site for the Uninsured

Going without PrEP while waiting on an outside prescription, or absorbing its retail cost without coverage, is the gap Matthew 25 AIDS Services closes directly: PrEP is prescribed and fully covered for uninsured patients on-site, and PEP is available through the same access, no separate referral chain required.

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

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.

About Woodburn, KY

Octagon Hall Road anchors Woodburn's western edge, and the community around it reflects what the numbers confirm: most households here own their homes, most adults are married, and families run larger than the state average. That stability is real, but it also means the town's younger adults, people in their late teens and twenties building relationships and navigating new independence, can be quietly tucked into a household dynamic that doesn't make solo health decisions feel automatic. With more than half the adult population outside the active workforce and unemployment running above typical rural benchmarks, scheduling anything mid-week takes real coordination. US 31W connects residents to larger centers, but that means a car trip, not a short walk.

The options listed on this page span in and around Warren County, so knowing which ones offer evening or Saturday slots, and which accept sliding-scale fees, matters before you commit to the drive. Warren County's STI trends follow the national pattern: younger adults carry a disproportionate share of diagnoses, and routine testing is what keeps a single exposure from becoming a longer story. If you're near Octagon Hall, pulling up the clinic list here and calling ahead to confirm hours is the most direct next step.

Confidentiality & consent in Kentucky

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

Two things that actually depend on Kentucky 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 Kentucky, 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)

Kentucky 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.
