[Histonet] Re Blind Review Policy

[Robert Richmond]

Marsha Price asks: >>Does anyone have a Blind Case review Policy they
could share with me? This is where when there is only one Pathologist
and he does not have another pathologist to do peer review,In a one
Pathologist lab. Is anyone else doing this?<<

In my travels as a locum tenens pathologist, I have rarely seen this
done in the many solo pathology practices I have covered. It sounds
good to bureaucrats, but in the opinion of most pathologists "blind
review" is of very little value.

It's much more important to establish a pattern of sending problem
cases out for consultation, and maintaining adequate records of these
consultations.
