Tuberculosis Testing

The Polk County Health Center offers TB skin testing for $40.00. A two-step TB test is $80.00 and a TB blood test is $55.00.

Tuberculosis skin tests are available for people who have symptoms or have been exposed to a confirmed case of tuberculosis at no cost. Follow-up is done on TB infection and TB disease. Medication can be obtained from the health department (provided by the Missouri Department of Health) with a doctor’s order free of charge for those clients with infection or disease.
