[Histonet] Block Storage-another question

[McMahon, Loralee A]

I would think that if NYS is involved in anyway you have to hold those blocks for 20 years.  When they inspect you do they inspect both labs?  Do both labs hold a NYS permit? 

For cetain I would call NYS before you discard anything.

If the pod lab is in NJ and the "reading" lab is in NY, which guide lines do
you follow. NYS requires us to save our blocks for 20 years. Due to storage
issues, I would rather the pod lab store the blocks.

Depending on the state regulations and the laboratory policies,blocks are
stored during different periods of time before being discarded. I used to
store them for 9 years.

This is a very sticky issue, when I setup inhouse labs I always present the
argument that during inspections the lab that produces a report should have
access to all test material which includes blocks and slides per the CAP
checklist.
Ann trying approaching it from that angle.

Does anyone know if a laboratory in NJ is required to keep the blocks they
perform Technical component  on if they do not perform the professional
component....or should they have the facility performing the professional
component store them?  Who is ultimately responsible? Ann
