Prices are snapshots, not guarantees. Mito pricing comes from its active production catalog. Competitor prices and required fees come from each provider’s first-party offer page. DrSays is not included because an exact current QuantiFERON-TB Gold Plus offer and its required fees could not be verified. Confirm the test name, final checkout total, performing laboratory, collection location, and state eligibility before ordering.
What changes the all-in QuantiFERON test cost?
The advertised test price is not always the amount due for a completed order. A provider may add a blood-draw, physician, or clinician-review fee. Membership pricing may lower the test price while requiring an active membership. State rules and laboratory networks can also change which offer is available.
Compare these details before choosing a provider:
- Mandatory fees: Add every required draw, ordering, physician, or review fee to the test price.
- Membership: Check whether the displayed price requires a paid membership.
- State eligibility: A provider or performing laboratory may not serve every state.
- Performing laboratory: Confirm the laboratory and test code when your school, employer, or other institution specifies one.
- Final checkout total: Recheck the amount immediately before payment because prices and fees can change after a comparison is published.
Two listings with the same test name can also differ in result format, turnaround time, collection requirements, or paperwork. Price alone does not prove that an offer will satisfy an administrative requirement.
What is QuantiFERON-TB Gold Plus?
QuantiFERON-TB Gold Plus is a tuberculosis blood test called an interferon-gamma release assay, or IGRA. It measures the immune response to proteins associated with Mycobacterium tuberculosis in a blood sample. The CDC lists QuantiFERON-TB Gold Plus as an FDA-approved TB blood test, and QIAGEN describes it as an indirect test for TB infection that should be used with other medical and diagnostic information.
A positive result supports TB infection but does not distinguish inactive TB infection from active TB disease. The CDC says additional evaluation is needed to determine which is present. People with TB symptoms or a positive test should receive medical evaluation rather than relying on the blood test alone.
Frequently asked questions
How much does a QuantiFERON-TB Gold Plus test typically cost?
In this September 3, 2026 comparison, verified all-in cash prices for one self-ordered test range from $61.71 for a Mito member in most states to $155 through Quest direct or Walk-In Lab. The lowest non-member Mito total is $81.80 in most states. Your total can differ by state, laboratory, required fee, membership status, and price changes after the comparison date.
Do I need insurance to order a QuantiFERON-TB Gold Plus test?
No. The offers in this comparison have a self-pay cash option, so insurance is not required. An insurance claim may be available through some providers, but coverage and out-of-pocket cost depend on the plan. Confirm whether you are selecting cash payment or insurance billing before ordering.
Do I need to fast for a QuantiFERON-TB Gold Plus test?
Fasting is not required for this test alone. If you order other blood tests at the same visit, their preparation instructions may differ. Follow the instructions attached to your complete order.
Will every school or employer accept a QuantiFERON-TB Gold Plus result?
No. Acceptance is not universal. Ask the school, employer, licensing body, or occupational-health office whether it accepts an IGRA, whether it requires a specific laboratory or test date, and what report or signature it needs.
What should I verify before ordering?
Verify the exact test name, performing laboratory and code, state eligibility, collection location, required fees, final checkout total, turnaround expectations, and paperwork requirements. If the test follows a recent exposure, a previous positive result, or symptoms of active TB disease, ask a clinician or public-health program about the appropriate next step and timing.
Compare the test, then choose the right next step
- Check the current price and availability on Mito’s QuantiFERON-TB Gold Plus product page.
- Before ordering for an administrative requirement, review what schools and employers may require.
