Where in the CAP Standard check list for Anatomic Pathology does it
state that a second patient identifier must be on the tissue cassette?

I don't remember reading that.

How are you small hospitals dealing with a second patient identifier on
the tissue cassette if you do not have a cassette printer/labeler?  Is
there an easier way then hand writing patient name on cassette?
