What type of TB Test results are acceptable?

Modified on Mon, 29 Apr, 2024 at 4:07 PM

The Bchex online ordering system only covers the cost of a TB Skin test (PPD).  Some applicants may not be able to pass a TB skin test due a a previous TB vaccine or other reasons.  


If this is the case, please select the option to use your own personal physician for this service.  You will still be charged the processing fee.


The TB test results we can accept are:


  • TB Blood Test (QuantiFERON-TB Gold)
  • Chest X-Ray
  • TB Skin Test (purified protein derivative or PPD)


The result must be NEGATIVE, and must be from within the last 12 months.
