Anonymous Testing
- The person's name is not recorded or reported, regardless of result
- The test sample is randomly assigned a numeric code
Confidential Testing
- The test and result are recorded in a person's medical file and protected by the Health Information Protection and Portability Act (HIPPA)
- A positive test and client name are reported to the Department of Health and kept confidential, with extra data security measures in place. The names are not reported to the CDC.
Why test?
Testing helps people learn their HIV status, and can be a first step to care, better health outcomes, risk reduction counseling, and resources. All people at risk for acquiring HIV are encouraged to get tested.
An HIV test is the only way to tell whether or not a person has HIV. People can be infected for many years without symptoms. A person cannot tell if their sex or needle-sharing partners have HIV just by looking at them.
Where to get tested in VT:
1. Ask any medical provider for an HIV test
2. Seek testing at one of the locations listed on this page
3. You can also seek testing at medical clinics such as Federally Qualified Health Centers, PPNNE and others
There are two ways to test for HIV
One way to test for HIV is with a Conventional Test. When you have one of these tests a sample of oral fluid (not saliva) or blood is collected and sent to a lab for testing. You will get a result in about two weeks.
A second way to test is the Rapid Test. When you have one of these tests a sample of oral fluid (not saliva) or blood is collected and screened. A test result is available in about 20 minutes. If the result is "reactive" then you will need a Conventional Test to confirm the result. This means that a sample of blood or oral fluid will be sent to a lab and you will get a result within two weeks .
Free, anonymous oral fluid tests (both Conventional and Rapid) are available throughout Vermont; the health department pays for these tests.
