I'm curious what methods other labs are using to track specimens that couriers pick up from clinic locations to ensure safe delivery to the lab.
We currently utilize a logbook at the clinic site that the courier signs when they take the specimen but I have heard there are barcoded systems available out there as well. What works? What doesn't?  Appreciate your feedback!
