Tuberculosis (TB) Testing

---

TB Skin Test - $15 (May be billable to Michigan Medicaid or private health insurance)

** There is no charge for a TB skin test if the person is a close contact to someone with active TB.**

How do I get my TB skin test results?

You must come back to our office 48 to 72 hours after your TB skin test is placed to have it read by a nurse. If you are unable to return within 72 hours during our clinic hours, the test will be invalid. You will have to schedule a new appointment to be retested.

What if my TB test is positive?

A positive TB skin test result means you have been exposed to the TB germ. Further evaluation is needed.
