I give each Pathologist a report for the batch and eliminate (X off) the cases done by the other Pathologist(s) in reporting area. Yes, more paper is used, but this eliminates "blank" areas and satisfies the requirement. I also request that they indicate if the case would work as potential control tissue and review the sheets as I put them in a binder. This also is a means of making sure that they A) return it, and B) filled them out. I am fortunate that my Pathologists are prompt and concise with their reporting. How are you doing your QC for your H&E stains? I have a similar sheet for them to fill out as well. Each has there own and only fills out the days they read (they rotate the duties). When the sheets are returned at the end of the month, I indicate on the sheet that "*blank lines indicated slides read by other Pathologist". I also check to see that between them, each day is accounted for the month. Hope this helps! Happy Halloween!
