[Histonet] who reads what?

[Bonner, Janet]

 We used to distribute by 20-slide trays - taking into consideration the
Histology slides only.  Then, because the Pathologists also had Cytology,
Bone Marrows, FNAs, Flow Cytometry and Peripheral smears to read, we now
distribute the night before by slide count, using Pathology/Cytology
dictation, the Copath System, and verbal call-ins - taking into
consideration ALL the slides the Pathologists have to read. I believe we're
close to 1500 slides per day to distribute among 14 Pathologists.

Hello all:

I am hoping that I can get some help.....

I am wondering what system people are using  to divide up cases/slides
to
your pathologists.  We currently have a very "painful" process of
dividing
up cases to our pathologists.  Trying to make it fair in terms of
numbers,
types of cases, and even trying to accommodate personal interests or
specialties.  All of this consideration means a lot of time added to the
process.   I would really appreciate some response and ideas for a
better
and more efficient process.

Thanks,
