Chest X-Ray: If a previous skin test had a positive result, then a chest x-ray must be performed. The negative chest x-ray results can be accepted if the procedure was performed within one year of the last day of the scheduled clinical shift, and if it accompanies the date of positive skin test with result size. The provider of the TB skin test (usually a personal physician or the Department of Health) may have applicable records. 8 Rev. 12/20/16
