They don't check for that when going to the USA. Even if you are applying for a job, they don't check for that here. They do check for HIV, TB, syphilis (?), but not hbv. In other words, there are no blood tests performed specifically to see if you are HBsag+.

However, when you do get here, the local bureau of public health does take note of it, and adds it to their statistics. In general, your health info is legally kept confidential from any prospective employers. If you are in the medical field though, i'm not sure. However, there are medical staff that are chronically infected, but they are not barred from practicing.
