We are using the Hemachrom Jr Signature for ACT in our Interventional Radiology Department - we do not import or manually enter any results into MediTech (we decided it would be too confusing for everyone since they are only using the result to know when to pull the sheath), the Interventional Radiologists document the reading in their procedure notes and the charge goes in through that department - I think with the procedure codes. The IR nurses document all patient results on a flow chart that is kept in the department along with the QC records. Hope this helps

Are the results being entered into Meditech or not? If they are, are they being entered manually (in the LAB module or other module), or are the results directly interfaced into the LAB module? Also, are you billing for the point-of-care ACT? If so, how? Thanks!
