[Histonet] Pennsylvania Department of Health permit

[Abbott, Tanya]

This is for you Histoneters In Pennsylvania! Are you all familiar with PA Department of Health Act 122-2013? I am wondering how the Pennsylvanians are interpreting the rules for sending out slides for consults to other states? Are you expecting those consulting labs to have PA DOH permits? Some of our consulting labs perform further testing that we cannot perform here in our lab, and some perform further testing that we can perform here, to aid in their consult opinion. And sometimes they just look at our material and give an opinion. Any ideas?
Thanks in advance and happy holidays!! Tanya
