We are not required to conduct annual TB screening in our county in WV based on our annual Infection Prevention Risk Assessment.

It can vary by county and is based on the Risk Assessment.

Hello!

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

  1. California IS

 

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

 

Thank you!
