The way Premier can break down the productivity/staffing info for your lab is dependent on how your organization separates the lab into cost centers -- if your lab is all one cost center for clinical and anatomic labs together, that's the way it gets reported to Premier, and that's how the statistics will come back to you. These statistics are based on billable tests and worked hours for your cost center. If your organization has the anatomic lab as a different cost center from the clinical lab, the info will get reported to Premier separately and Premier can give you info back comparing you to other AP only databases. There are no labs I am aware of which have Histo and Cyto in separate cost centers, so Premier would likely be unable to give you comparison data that way.

Dear Histonetters,

Are there any labs that utilize Premier for staffing productivity?   For those 
that do use Premier is the histology section separated from your other lab 
sections or included with the clinical lab?  And also is cytology considered 
separate or included with histology?  Do you report volume and staffing?   Or, 
only report one or the other?

I am trying to find a comparison group for staffing productivity. Our histology 
and cytology sections are included as part of the entire lab for both volume 
and staffing.


Thanks in advance for your help,
