I would like to branch off from this topic...  Should a lab aid be allowed to load/unload slides/reagents from an automated IHC machine?
Should they be permitted to print the labels that tell the machine which tests to run?

I say no, but others say otherwise, so I'm interested in what everyone else here thinks.

All lab tests have pre and post analytical components and I believe they all contribute to the High-complexity status of the "test".  It surely cannot be that the interpretation is the only portion that is considered the "High-complexity test".  I am open to hearing why this may be the case though.
