[Histonet] RE: need help on a cap question

[Hannen, Valerie]

Kim,
 In our department,  we assist in the collection of FNA's in radiology, the Pathologist comes there after the slides are prepared and gives a quick interpretation. 
If the specimen is deemed adequate or not, and if more material is requested, this is noted on the requisition and signed and dated by the Pathologist.  This quick interpretation note is then also typed into the comments section of the patients Path. report.

I hope this helps.

I could use some help clarifying this question:

 

 

**NEW**       04/21/2014

ANP.11525

Tissue/Cytology Assessment Record

Phase I

 

If a statement of adequacy, preliminary diagnosis, or recommendations for additional studies is provided at the time of tissue and cytology sample collection, documentation of that statement is maintained.

NOTE: Documentation might include a note in the medical record or in the final report.

 

 

 

Is this really asking that if the ordering physician wants something in
particular, it must be noted somewhere?    I'm hung up on the mention of
'at the time of sample collection'.............

 

 

Thanks, Kim
