Are STD tests covered 100% by medicare? (1 Viewer)

[musik_junky]

You know how they say you should get an STD test with your partner whenever you start a new relationship - are these completely covered by medicare? Or do you have to pay for some of it? And what do they test for? Like is there a 'general' STD check up they use for couples just starting a new relationship? Or do they test for everything?

Thanks.

I'm assuming they test for a variety of things (HIV, chlamydia, herpes etc).

Go to a sexual health clinic or a family planning clinic, and they should be free/at a reduced fee

okay well doctors will do a swab test its from clamydia and gnorrea
herpes is a completely separate test
and HIV u just ask for a separate blood test
all are covered under medicare

It's also a quick and painless process.

Lies. Blood tests are painful, and urine tests are inconvinient.
