Re: [Histonet] Question about accessioning outside consult cases
Martha, we give it the same number sequence as any other surgical or cytology case, but we can identify our cases by "Specimen Class" so consults get a specimen class according to the type of consult - cyto, cytogyn, surgical, etc. The specimen class is printed on the labels for all materials.

My question involves how others are handling outside consult surgical and/or cytology cases. Do you assign them an unique number that identifies them as a consult as opposed to an inside case - SO20- verses S20-? We currently assign them as just another surgical case but I know some places do have outside consult designations. What is everyone doing? Thanks in advance for your input.

Re: [Histonet] Question about accessioning outside consult cases
We identify our outside surgical consults as OC, for example OC20-00010 Les Raff On Thu, Dec 10, 2020 at 12:45 PM Martha Ward-Pathology via Histonet < histonet@lists.utsouthwestern.edu> wrote: > We are in the process of switching to AP Beaker and in the midst of the > build.My question involves how others are handling outside consult > surgical and/or cytology cases.
