Titers – COMING SOON!

The Fishers Health Department offers Titer testing to assess your immunity to various diseases. A titer is a blood test that measures the presence and amount of antibodies in your blood. Antibodies are proteins produced by your immune system to fight off infections.

Pricing: There is a $20 administrative fee for all Titer tests, in addition to the cost of the specific lab test.

Here are the Titer tests we offer:

• Measles Antibodies, IgG
• Mumps Antibodies, IgG
• Rubella Antibodies, IgG
• MMR (Measles/Mumps/Rubella Immunity)
• Varicella (Chickenpox) Antibodies, IgG
• Hepatitis A Antibodies, Total
• Hepatitis B Surface Antibody, Qual or Quant
• Rabies

Why would you need a Titer? Titers are often drawn for several reasons:

• To confirm immunity after vaccination: If you’ve been vaccinated, a titer can verify that your body produced a protective immune response.
• To check for immunity after exposure: If you’ve been exposed to a disease, a titer can determine if you already have immunity or if you need post-exposure treatment.
• For school, work, or travel requirements: Many educational institutions, workplaces (especially in healthcare), or international travel destinations require proof of immunity to certain diseases.
• To determine if a booster shot is needed: Titers can help identify if your immunity has waned over time and if a booster dose of a vaccine is recommended.

Appointment Guidelines

• Services are by appointment only. Schedule an appointment.
• Consent and medical history forms are needed from a parent/guardian.
• Administration fee: $20 per person may apply for services unable to be billed to insurance. Some services have extra costs, based on partner rates.
