Tuberculosis Screening Guidelines |
|
|
It is the policy of the Campus Health Services to do targeted Tuberculosis screening. If you have lived in a country with a high prevalence of tuberculosis, you must submit documentation of a tuberculosis skin test (PPD) that has been performed in the last 12 months. If the reading of the skin test is equal to or greater than 5 millimeters, you will be required to make an appointment with a Campus Health Services provider. Please see the Information About The Tuberculin Skin Test (TST) page for details.
