Sexually transmitted infections (STIs) are common and treatable. Most people with STIs show no symptoms which is why it is important to get tested and know your status.

PPLM is now offering STI testing from the comfort of your home. Follow the instructions below.

3.

Get Results 

After we receive your test kit back we will process your test results and post them to your patient portal account. If necessary, we will reach out to you for follow up care. 

How much will my at-home STI kit cost? 

Great question! At-home STI testing phone consults and labs will be billed to your insurance. If you are not using insurance or do not have insurance then the cost will be billed directly to you. During the COVID-19 pandemic PPLM is covering the cost of supplies and shipping for patients.  For more information call us at 800-258-4448 or visit pplm.org/telehealth
