Who Must Report? All health care providers knowing of or in attendance on a patient suspected or confirmed to have tuberculosis disease must report within 1 working day from the time of identification (California Code of Regulations, Title 17, Section 2500).
Latent Tuberculosis Infection (LTBI): Latent Tuberculosis Infection shall be reported to the local health authority or the Department of Health within three (3) calendar days of first knowledge or suspicion.
People with TB disease need to take several medicines when they start treatment. After taking TB medicine for several weeks, a doctor will be able to tell TB patients when they are no longer able to spread TB germs to others. Most people with TB disease will need to take TB medicine for at least 6 months to be cured.
There are two kinds of tests used to detect TB bacteria in the body: the TB skin test (TST) and TB blood tests. A positive TB skin test or TB blood test only tells that a person has been infected with TB bacteria. It does not tell whether the person has latent TB infection (LTBI) or has progressed to TB disease.

Your health care provider MUST check your arm 2 or 3 days after the TB skin test, even if your arm looks OK to you. If you have a reaction to the test, it will look like a raised bump. Your health care provider will measure the size of the reaction. If there is a bump, it will go away in a few weeks.
Reporting of all patients with confirmed or suspected TB is legally required by California Code of Regulations, Title 17, Section 2500; reports must be submitted within one working day of identification of the case or suspected case.
Latent TB infection (LTBI) should be reported to the TB Control Program within 48 hours of diagnosis. Please report all persons who: Have a positive (+) tuberculin skin test (TST) or a positive gamma release assay (IGRA) test for M.
* For employees who are otherwise at low risk for TB and who are tested as part of an infection control screening program at the start of employment, a reaction of 15 mm is considered positive.
