TB Testing Services
Early detection of tuberculosis (TB) is essential for protecting your health and preventing the spread of infection. Our TB screening options are fast, reliable, and designed to meet work, school, immigration, or personal health requirements.
PPD Skin Test (Mantoux Test)
The PPD skin test is a common method for checking TB exposure. A small amount of testing fluid is injected just beneath the skin of your forearm, and results are read 48–72 hours later. This test is often required for employment, healthcare workers, school enrollment, or travel documentation.
TB Blood Test (IGRA)
The TB blood test—also called an Interferon-Gamma Release Assay (IGRA)—offers a more accurate and convenient way to detect TB infection, especially for those who have received the BCG vaccine. It requires just one visit and delivers quick results without a return appointment.
Chest X-Ray
A chest X-ray is used to determine if TB is active in the lungs, especially after a positive skin or blood test. This imaging helps rule out active tuberculosis and is often requested for immigration, medical clearance, or follow-up evaluations.

TB Testing FAQ
What types of TB tests are available?
Two common TB tests are the PPD skin test (Mantoux test) and TB blood tests (IGRA). For further evaluation, a TB chest X-ray may be performed to detect lung abnormalities indicating active TB. Gateway Urgent Care provides all three options—skin tests, blood tests, and chest X-rays—in one convenient location, with walk-in availability, extended hours, and on-site labs and imaging for quick, reliable results.
Is TB testing covered by insurance?
Many insurance plans cover TB testing for medically necessary screenings, such as for work, school, or immigration, but it’s important to confirm coverage with your provider to understand potential out-of-pocket costs. Gateway Urgent Care offers affordable, efficient testing with walk-in availability, eliminating the need for an appointment. Our knowledgeable staff can assist with insurance questions and provide transparent pricing for self-pay patients.
How long does it take to get TB test results?
The time to receive TB test results varies by type: skin tests require a follow-up visit 48-72 hours after the injection to check for a reaction, while TB blood tests typically provide results within a few days as they are processed in a lab. Gateway Urgent Care offers both skin and blood tests, as well as chest X-rays for further evaluation of potential active TB infections, ensuring a comprehensive approach.
