I do not believe that SC requires yearly. We do on-boarding blood testing and then annual TB questionnaire. If there are any positive responses, they are retested and, if appropriate, a CXR is performed.

**External Email**

Hello!

I need to find out ASAP if any states are still requiring annual TB testing of healthcare workers?

California IS

Please let me know if you are aware of any other states that continue the requirement.

Thank you!
