Why TB Testing Is often Required
When and Why to Get a TB Test
A TB test is a simple way to check if you’ve ever been exposed to tuberculosis, a serious but treatable lung infection. While rare in everyday settings, TB is still screened for in jobs and places where people are in close contact.
You may need a TB test if you are:
Starting a new job in healthcare, childcare, or public service
Enrolling in school, college, or a credential program
Applying for immigration, visa, or travel clearance
Working in shared living environments like shelters, rehab centers, or jails
Completing a routine health screening required by an employer or provider
At Canyon Urgent Care, we’ll make sure you get fast service, accurate documentation, and clear instructions for what comes next.
Clear, Affordable Pricing For Everyone
What Does a TB Test Cost?
We charge $50 flat for the full process. This includes:
Placement of the PPD (tuberculin) under the skin
Return visit for reading within 48 to 72 hours
Documentation for your employer, school, or personal records
There are no extra charges, and you don’t need an appointment. Just come in during open hours and we’ll take care of the rest.
Have insurance? We’re happy to check your coverage, or you can choose to pay cash and skip the paperwork.
How It Works From Start To Finish
What to Expect at Your TB Test
Getting tested is simple and only takes a few minutes. Here’s how it works:
Step 1: Test Placement
We place a small amount of fluid just under the skin on your forearm. This causes a small bump and takes less than 2 minutes.
Step 2: Follow-Up Reading
Return to the clinic 48 to 72 hours later. A provider will check the area and determine if your result is negative or requires follow-up.
Step 3: Results in Hand
You’ll get your results and official documentation right away.
If your test is positive, it doesn’t mean you’re sick. It simply means you’ve been exposed to TB bacteria at some point in the past. Our provider will walk you through any next steps or referrals you may need.
