Subject: [Histonet] HISTO/CYTO SKILL REVIEW

Hi,  I was wondering if anyone knows how often Joint Commission requires cytologist and histologist to have their competency reviewed.  I'm not talking about their job performance review, but how often to review their job skills with a check list under direct observation.  We have been doing it quarterly for histologists.
Thanks so much,
