New job or new school asking about a TB test? Here's the 60 second version. ⏱️
Step one is usually a risk assessment with a few questions. No risk factors? You may not need a test at all.
If you do need one, there are three ways: the skin test (quick poke, back in 2 to 3 days for the read), the blood test (one visit, done), or in some cases a chest X-ray (also one visit, no return trip).
A positive doesn't mean you're sick or contagious. It means follow-up, and we'll walk you through it.
Heads up: TB testing for work or school usually isn't covered by insurance, so plan for an out-of-pocket visit. You'll know the price upfront.
Bring the form. We'll handle the rest.
