[Histonet] quality assurance. .

[Henry, Charlene]

A few suggestions.
1. Frozen Section Turn Around Time (20 minute TAT)
2. Number of SS Repeated Tests (ours is a target of < 5% of total SS
tests)
3. Number of IHC Repeated Tests (ours is a target of < 5% of total IHC
tests)
3. Number of surgical cases completed after ____ AM  (our target is < 5%
after 9:00 AM)
Hope these help.

please I need help!!!!!!!!! I am looking for a new quality assurance
indicator for Histology. I currently am using specimen/requisition
deficiencies. We have been compliant for over 2 years and I need to
identify high risk, high volume error prone issue. I can't come up with
something new to monitor. What does everyone else use???
