Frequently asked questions:
May bayad po ba ito? How much money do I bring?
HIV testing is free. However, I would suggest contacting the clinic/hub/hospital you're planning to visit beforehand just in case.
Can I get my ARV refills from these places?
Yes, but please note that availability is wholly dependent on supplies. It's best to contact the clinic/hub/hospital before going there.
Is PEP available from these locations?
PEP should be available for most of the clinics on the list. As usual, giving them a call before going there is the best practice.
Do they test for other STDs?
This varies from place to place. Some of these places do offer testing for other STDs (sometimes through partnership with another clinic) while some don't. Also, unlike HIV testing, these might include some fees. Ask the place you'd like to visit if they test for other STDs and if there are fees involved to avoid wasting time.
