Frequently Asked Questions

Private physicians and clinics provide TB testing. Two visits are required for a TB skin test. Skin tests are placed on one day and read two or three days later. TB skin tests are not offered by the Health Care Agency to individuals needing work or school clearances, including but not limited to students, teachers, school volunteers, certificated employees (e.g. janitors), health care workers, childcare workers, and foster parents.
