[Histonet] Cost analysis

[joelle weaver]

QI Macros software or Palisades Decision Tools software may help ( maybe latter for cost-seeking emphasis). It will help you track the data, make good comparision charts,find "hidden" waste and cost, and  perform calculations with sensitivity analysis beyond Excel

> labor) for IHC, ISH, special stains, and routine H&E (to include
> processing, embedding, cutting, staining).  I'm not too concerned with
> IHC and special stains, but I'm hoping to get some input regarding

> consider and many are variable.  Has anyone done this, and would mind
