Titer Testing in Charlotte: MMR, Varicella and Hepatitis B

A titer measures antibodies. For some infections, results can support evidence of immunity, but interpretation depends on the test, vaccine history and clinical situation. Not every antibody test measures protection; hepatitis C antibody testing screens for infection, not immunity.

At both OneSpotMD clinics: Steele Creek at 2114 Freeman Park Dr, Suite 105, Charlotte, NC 28273, and Plaza Midwood at 2017 Central Ave, Suite 103, Charlotte, NC 28205.

No. Walk in at either clinic, 7 days a week. You can also book ahead with Save my spot.

We offer MMR, varicella, hepatitis A and B, and tetanus antibody testing when appropriate. Hepatitis C antibody screening is also available but is not an immunity titer. A provider selects the correct tests for your requirements.

No. We don’t offer polio titers.

MMR testing measures antibodies to measles, mumps and rubella. Results are interpreted with vaccination records and the requirements of your school or employer, rather than as a guarantee of protection.

It measures antibodies to chickenpox. Commercial tests can miss vaccine-induced immunity, so a negative result after vaccination does not automatically mean you are unprotected. Bring your vaccine records for review.

For vaccine response, this usually means hepatitis B surface antibody, called anti-HBs. Interpretation depends on completion and timing of vaccination and previous results. It is not the same as hepatitis B infection screening, which may require other tests.

Many results return in about 1–3 business days, but some tests take longer. Results are available through the patient portal and staff follow-up; ask when to contact us if you have not heard back.

Yes. A provider sees you first, reviews what you need, and orders the right titers.

Bring your photo ID, school or employer form, exact required test names, deadline and vaccine records. Tell the provider about symptoms or recent exposures.

We can complete the portions supported by your results and records. The receiving school or employer decides whether that documentation meets its requirements; additional records or steps may be needed.

A low, negative or equivocal result needs interpretation with your vaccination history and the test’s limitations. It does not always mean you lack protection. Your provider can recommend appropriate vaccination, repeat testing or other follow-up rather than an automatic booster.

Many nursing and healthcare programs ask for titers as proof of immunity before clinicals. Check your program’s list, and bring it to your visit.

Coverage depends on the test, reason, coding, laboratory network and your plan. School or employer requirements may not be covered. Confirm both visit and laboratory benefits with your insurer before testing.

$140 for the visit plus the lab fee for each titer. Each titer has its own price, depending on the test.

When using insurance, laboratory billing and any balance depend on your plan and the tests ordered. Under our agreed self-pay arrangement, the lab fee for the selected tests is collected at the visit; confirm whether additional or follow-up testing would create separate charges.

Yes. See our TB testing page for options.

Your plan’s copay amount is due at the visit when applicable. Deductible, coinsurance and laboratory charges may also apply, with additional responsibility billed after claims processing. We accept most NC Medicaid plans; copays for covered visits are usually $0 or $4, while lab coverage and costs may differ. Check your plan.
