It's true and I do know that we are currently in process of upgrading to barcode reading ability. I don't know if this applies to all areas of our hospital but have heard rumors that it is happening. It's just seems to be a slow process. LOL

We are currently accessioning through Vista which if you work in the VA is used for many other processes such as timekeeping and ordering supplies but it is extremely archaic and not ideal for anatomic pathology, (in my humble opinion). Our barcoding is not interfaced with Vista and I am trying to convince management to upgrade to COPATH, WINDOWPATH, or POWERPATH, really anything other than what we have now. I have been told all VA Histology labs only use VISTA and I hope to God this is not true. So if anyone works at a VA, used to work there or know someone who works there, please contact me to let me know what you are using and how your process works. Thank you in advance. _______________________________________________ Histonet mailing list Histonet@lists.utsouthwestern.edu http://lists.utsouthwestern.edu/mailman/listinfo/histonet _______________________________________________ Histonet mailing list Histonet@lists.utsouthwestern.edu http://lists.utsouthwestern.edu/mailman/listinfo/histonet
