STI Testing
According to the Center for Disease Control (CDC) young people aged 15-24 make up half of all new STI diagnoses each year. It is recommended that all sexually active individuals be screened at least once a year for STIs. Depending on your sexual practices, your healthcare provider may recommend more frequent testing. UHCS offers onsite STI testing.
STI testing cost
There are a few different ways to pay for STI testing.
- NUSHP (Blue Cross Blue Shield) covers the cost of STI testing at UHCS
- For health insurance plans other than NUSHP, contact your insurance provider to obtain a cost estimate for STI testing. Confirm with your insurance provider that Baystate Reference Labs is in network.
- *Self-pay
- Free testing is available for those who are affected by sexual violence
- Local testing sites outside of Northeastern
*Students may opt to self-pay to protect your privacy from your insurance policy holder (often a parent).
If you would like to self-pay: Gonorrhea and Chlamydia are tested together and cost $25. HIV Testing costs $25. Syphilis Testing costs $25. Payment must be made prior to testing. UHCS accepts major credit cards, debit cards and non-food related Husky dollars.
