[Histonet] Frozen section TAT

[Fawn Bomar]

Hi Everyone,



Hope you all had a wonderful Christmas and a Happy New Year!!



I am working on my Quality Indicators/Assessment and was setting a goal for our frozen section TAT's and was wondering if there was an overall standard TAT goal that everyone was using as far as percentage of frozens reported within 20 minutes. (i.e., goal of less than 1% outside of 20 minutes or goal of 90% being completed within 20 minutes).  Also, do you all record the time that you give the pathologist the slide as the end time or the time the pathologist reports the results as the end time?



Thank you in advance

Fawn
