1. Registration: Upon arrival, you’ll need to provide some basic information, complete any necessary paperwork, and provide a photo ID along with your insurance card. 
2. Consultation: An Xpress Wellness provider will go over your symptoms and answer any questions and concerns that you may have. Be prepared to discuss your medical history, as well as sexual encounters and their timeframe so that your provider can determine which tests are appropriate. 
3. Testing: Depending on which STDs are being tested for, you may need to provide a urine sample, blood sample, or swab from the affected area(s). Some tests may require multiple types of samples. 
4. Results: The time it takes to receive results can vary, largely due to the type of test and the lab being used. Some types of tests are rapid tests that are performed in the office, while other samples may need to be sent out to a lab. Weekends and holidays may also experience slower reporting times. Your provider will tell you how you will be informed about your results, as well as a general timeframe. 

Confidentiality and Privacy

One of the primary concerns when seeking STD testing is confidentiality. Xpress Wellness Urgent Care follows strict guidelines to protect patient privacy. Your results are confidential and will not be shared without your consent. It’s important to feel comfortable discussing your health openly with your provider to ensure the best care and outcome possible. 

Costs and Insurance

The cost of STD testing can vary based on several factors, including: 

• The type of tests being conducted 
• Insurance or self-pay 
• External lab fees 

Most insurance plans cover the costs of STD testing, but it’s a good idea to call your insurance provider to confirm what your plan covers before being tested. If you are a self-pay patient, Xpress Wellness offers competitive self pay rates. Call ahead or ask during registration at the clinic what your cost will be.
