Testing
Information

Historically, The Center Orlando has centered its efforts and resources on the vital work necessary to end the HIV epidemic by providing resources and linkage to care and prevention. To expand the health resources available to you, we have partnered with NPS Healthcare to offer vital STI testing on-site. For some time, The Center has absorbed the full cost of lab fees, provider visits and administrative costs to ensure our clients had access to regular screenings.
To ensure the long-term sustainability of our programs, we will no longer cover the lab fees associated with STI testing; however, we will continue to cover administrative fees. These cost sharing changes will take effect on Monday, May 4th 2026.

This adjustment is a strategic step toward our larger goal:

building a robust patient assistance fund that will allow us to fully cover the cost of HIV care and prevention for our uninsured clients in the future. By shifting our fiscal resources, we are investing in a healthcare model where no member of our community has to go without essential treatment due to financial barriers.
We appreciate your continued support and partnership in keeping Orlando healthy and informed.

The Center Orlando has not historically operated the STI testing services performed within our facility; these services have been provided through third-party partnerships. Through these collaborations, The Center has been able to facilitate free STI testing for our patrons without assuming the associated operational, administrative, and laboratory costs. While this model has expanded access, it has limited our ability to build and sustain a program that provides direct services and long-term operational support. Through our latest partnership, The Center will continue to provide space for collaborative, on-site services that aim to reduce barriers to accessing sexual health care, while also strengthening our ability to connect uninsured individuals to HIV prevention and care. During this transition, The Center has absorbed these costs to ensure there has been no disruption in services. Moving forward, The Center will be refocusing financial resources on the primary health services objective of Ending the HIV Epidemic, while continuing to support access to STI testing through trusted partners
