I am posted this question for a colleague.    She has been asked to provide the 
direct costs for processing one biopsy, for example, a punch skin biopsy.    
Would anyone be willing to share that information with us?   She is looking at 
the total costs of having a resident or PA gross, someone to accession the 
case, the tissue processing, embedding, microtomy, staining the H&E, 
coverslipping and reviewing the slide.   We know that reagents and salary costs 
will vary but she just wants a ball park figure for comparison.    Thanks in 
advance for your help.
