[Histonet] RE: printed requisitions

[histotech <@t> imagesbyhopper.com]

We currently use paper reqs, but <gasp> coming soon, we will be going paperless.  I am not sure I am going to like this... ;o). Surgical staff will enter the "req" in the computer, we receive the order & the specimen and enter into our AP system.

There are going to be growing pains!!!

Our OR has a shared printer for all of the procedure rooms, but would like to have a printer for each OR suite. Our  IT department is saying there would be problems and has suggested that we go paperless. I see many problems arising from this. If anyone is doing this successfully, I'd be very interested in hearing how you accomplished it.
