TB Testing

Employee TB Testing and Quantiferon

Employee TB screening uses risk assessment, symptom review and an appropriate blood or skin test when indicated. The clinical team reviews earlier results and the employer’s requirement before selecting the next step.

Employee TB screening

Prepare the requested service

Bring prior TB results, treatment records and the written requirement. A skin test needs a trained reading 48–72 hours after placement; an IGRA blood test uses a laboratory sample and does not need that skin-test reading visit.

Results and follow-up

For US healthcare personnel, CDC does not recommend routine annual TB testing after baseline without exposure or ongoing transmission; local rules may differ. A positive test or TB symptoms need clinical follow-up rather than a simple completion report.

Arrange the employer program

Confirm the service list, employee eligibility, locations, dates, employer authorization, payment arrangements and reporting contacts with the employer-service team. Give employees the correct appointment instructions and a route for questions or missed appointments. Confirm any proposed workplace event or outside collection site before arranging attendance.

Employee privacy and reporting

Employers should receive only the information needed for the authorized work request. Agree on completion reports, restrictions or other necessary documentation and who may see them. Covered employers must keep medical information confidential and separate from ordinary personnel files. An employee’s personal treatment needs remain a confidential clinical matter.

Questions about employer services

Can employers choose PPD or Quantiferon?

Quantiferon is an IGRA blood test; PPD is a skin test with a trained reading 48–72 hours after placement. They are different methods. The clinician reviews prior results, health history and the employer’s requirement before choosing whether an appropriate blood test can replace the requested skin test.

Can TB testing be bundled with a work physical?

TB screening can be coordinated with an authorized work physical when appropriate. Confirm the required blood or skin test, costs and reporting. A skin test still needs a trained reading 48–72 hours after placement; combining appointments does not remove that return visit.

Can Nao Medical support large employee TB screening needs?

Provide the employee group, earlier TB records, exact requirement and deadline to plan screening. The clinical team reviews eligibility and test choice. Confirm collection or skin-test placement appointments, any return readings, costs and authorized completion reports.

Does Nao Medical provide employer-facing services nationwide?

The employer-service team can discuss coordination across employee locations. Provide the states, roles and exact services so each proposed site and appointment can be confirmed. A network program does not establish every test, clinician license or regulated service in every state.

How do employers book a Corporate Health consultation?

Employers can use the employer consultation to agree on services, locations, authorizations, costs and reports. Provide the headcount, requested service and deadline. An employee needing care should book the relevant clinical appointment with employer authorization; urgent care should not wait for a program-planning meeting.

Will the employer receive my entire medical record?
