STD test cost in Minnesota without insurance

In Minnesota, the median cash price for Chlamydia test is $96.80 across 82 hospitals, from $11.76 to $427.26. The lowest is at St. Joseph's Area Health Services (Park Rapids). The US median is $98.75.

Minnesota law (Minn. Stat. §144.589): a hospital may not charge an uninsured patient whose household income is under $125,000 more than the lowest amount it would be paid for the same service by a private insurer, counting the insured patient's share. If the cash price below is higher, ask the billing office to apply this limit. Each hospital's page here shows the range of insurer rates in its own file (the "Insurers pay" column), a starting point when you ask. Other states' laws.

STD tests are lab tests, and each infection is usually its own code: chlamydia and gonorrhea are often run on the same urine sample or swab but billed as two tests. The listed price covers the lab test only; the visit, the sample collection or blood draw, and any confirmation test after a positive result are billed separately.

Paying cash: what to do

  • Check your local health department or a Title X family planning clinic, which offer free or sliding-fee STD testing in many areas.
  • Ask whether chlamydia and gonorrhea will be billed as two tests or as one combined price, and whether the visit fee is included.
  • Ask what the follow-up test costs if a screen is positive, since HIV, syphilis and hepatitis C screening results are confirmed with a second test.
