If the specimen is in-house, we walk it back to the department for correction. If outside the hospital, the courier returns it to the clinic/doctor's office for correction. All mislabeled specimens, however, have a form filled out (Specimen Rejection form), "copies" of the specimen container are made and a report made to QRM is severe enough to warrant. This is all in accordance with CAP.
