[Histonet] Tracking Specimens

[Amy Self]

Dear Histonetters,

 

How are Histology Labs keeping an audit trail to track specimens from
the time that they are collected, are picked up from the physicians'
offices by couriers, and then delivered to the Lab that performs the
histology testing?   

 

What kinds of logs are being kept?  Is anyone using a barcode system?
Do you have an Outreach program?  

 

We need feedback on other labs processes? 

 

Thanks in advance for your help.
