Online clinics in the US are now accepting health insurance plans as a form of payment for STD check-ups. It’s thought that this will increase the access to STD testing and advice for individuals who have insurance. In addition to a more convenient payment method, with the traditional private STD testing with a credit card or cash, consumers can now receive the same care and services simply by using their insurance plan. Health experts are claiming this new initiative could start to break down the barriers to health care, which many feel are prevalent due to the cost of health care in America.
The two clinics in question, Sexualhealth.com and STDTestExpress.com, offer licensed STD checks with qualified doctors. With continuous technology and improvements being made, Analyte Health, the umbrella company who owns these clinics, offer quick and convenient online scheduling for private tests which take place in laboratories across the US. They also offer consultations for patients where necessary. Founded in 2008, Analyte Health strives to offer access to education, diagnostic testing and personalised results through its online clinics. In a busy world where people are constantly seeking faster ways to achieve things, online clinics could be the answer to this problem.
Sexual health testing is an important part of health care, yet many people ignore it. If you’re sexually active, it’s vital that you get tested regularly for diseases such as chlamydia, as such conditions don’t always show symptoms so you could be putting your body in a damaging situation. The majority of cities and towns have local clinics where you can receive free and unbiased testing to keep your body safe and healthy. You can also speak to your GP who can advise you of any local clinics in your area – some surgeries even offer testing on the premises.
