[MCOH-EH] Annual PPDQ's

[Seufert, Diana]

We do annual symptom screening from the last questionnaire - not on a specific date.
We require a CXR after the documented + TST/IGRA and then again only if symptomatic.

I am wondering how you handle annual ppd questionnaires for those who have had a +ppd or IGRA tuberculosis screening.  We perform our annual questionnaires on 5/1 of each year.  My question is if you hired someone in January, February, March or April and they filled out the questionnaire on hire, would you have them make out a new questionnaire with the annual May surveillance or would you put their next due date as 5/1 of the following year (example someone hired 2/1/15-next due date for questionnaire 5/1/15 or 5/1/16?)
Thank you,
