Family planning clinics near Rogersville that do Pap tests

HHS lists this as a Title X family planning clinic. For care under its Title X program, which can include Pap tests, federal rules say the clinic can't charge you if your family's income is at or below the federal poverty line, and must discount what you pay by income up to two and a half times that line (42 CFR 59.5).

When you call, ask:

  • Is this visit part of your Title X family planning program?
  • What would I pay at my income?

Need a colposcopy in Rogersville? Start with the same clinics

If your pap smear or HPV test comes back abnormal, the usual next step is a colposcopy: a 10 to 15 minute exam where a clinician looks at the cervix with a magnifying scope and, if needed, takes a small biopsy. It is how abnormal cells get diagnosed before they can become cancer.

The community health centers listed above provide pap smear screening, and many perform colposcopy on-site or refer you to a partner clinic that does. Call and ask two questions: whether they do colposcopy on-site, and whether you qualify for NBCCEDP coverage, which pays for diagnostic follow-up after an abnormal result, not just the screening itself.

If you are uninsured or under-insured, Tennessee runs a NBCCEDP program that covers pap smear and follow-up at no cost for residents who qualify.
