Testing

Here’s some information about testing for chlamydia. You can view a list of sex worker-friendly sexual health clinics at our Where To Test page.

Testing methods

Chlamydia is unlikely to go away by itself, and it may cause severe complications if left untreated. Sexual health clinic testing is often bulk billed, even if you don’t have Medicare, so the test will most likely be free. If you see a GP, you may pay a fee or be bulk billed.

On Sunday 7 July 2024, NDIS Minister Bill Shorten announced his plan to prohibit the inclusion of sex work services through the National Disability Insurance Scheme.

On Sunday 7 July 2024, NDIS Minister Bill Shorten announced his plan to prohibit the inclusion of sex work services through the National Disability Insurance Scheme.

Since 2020, access to specialised sex services have been confirmed as available through the NDIS following a Federal Court ruling. This ruling determined that the National Disability Insurance Agency should approve such services when they are considered reasonable and necessary in an NDIS participant’s personal circumstances.

Scarlet Alliance and Touching Base unequivocally reject Minister Bill Shorten’s public declaration to exclude access to sex work services under the NDIS. We are currently engaging with allied peer and peak disability organisations, policy makers and media and are lobbying to challenge Minister Shorten’s desire to deny an already neglected aspect of the lives of people with disability.
