TB testing guide

TB (tuberculosis) screening blood test order online in Virginia and West Virginia

This guide is for ordering a latent TB screening blood test, not for active TB symptoms like a cough lasting more than 3 weeks or coughing blood.

Start online

Start a $199 online review for TB screening test.

An order for a TB blood test (interferon-gamma release assay, IGRA — QuantiFERON-TB Gold or T-SPOT) for adults who need latent TB screening: a job or school requirement, a known exposure, or a risk factor such as birth in or travel to a high-incidence country. This is a test order, not a diagnosis or treatment visit; a positive result is followed by a chest X-ray and, if needed, treatment, arranged after the result.

If treatment is appropriate, your physician can send a non-controlled prescription to your pharmacy and provide portal instructions for the next step.

Does this order include the vaccine or treatment?

No. This is a test order only. If the result is positive, a chest X-ray and treatment discussion are arranged as next steps, not included automatically in this order.

What if I have symptoms right now?

A cough lasting more than 3 weeks, blood in the sputum, unexplained weight loss, night sweats, or fever can mean active TB, which needs an in-person evaluation and a chest X-ray rather than a screening blood draw alone.

I already tested positive before — do I need to retest?

Usually not. Bring your prior positive result and any treatment history to your evaluation; a repeat screening test is not usually needed.
