What does it mean to be tested anonymously?
Anonymous testing means that no names or addresses are used.

What does it mean to be tested confidentially?
Confidential testing means that your name and other identifying information will be attached to your test results. The results will go in your medical record and may be shared with your healthcare providers. Otherwise, the results are protected by State and Federal privacy laws.

How does the service work?
The clinic offers free anonymous and confidential HIV testing in our facility and conducts outreach testing in the community. Trained counselors and testers use a simple, quick test that involves an oral sample (OraSure) or a finger stick (blood) collection (Clearview rapid testing). Testing is available Monday to Friday from 9 am to 4:30 pm with no appointments necessary, and rapid testing only on Wednesday. Please call Comprehensive Care Center for current outreach test sites.

How do I get the results?

• OraSure
  Testing normally takes two to three weeks for the results to return. To get the results, simply present your identification and the green slip given to you when tested. No results will be given without proper identification. For anonymous testing just present the green slip.
• Clearview
  Test results are given 15 min after the sample is collected.

*All testing is done in conjunction with counseling.
** Results will not be given on the telephone.
