We perform something similar to Valerie. The pathologist provides a written
immediate interpretation on a FNA requisition form. If the sample is
insufficient, it is documented on this form. This is performed on each pass
performed. The rapid interpretation is transcribed into the final pathology
report. The FNA requisition is also scanned into our EMR. The rapid
interpretation for each pass is required for the pathologist to bill their
professional services.

Kim,
In our department, we assist in the collection of FNA's in radiology, the
Pathologist comes there after the slides are prepared and gives a quick
interpretation.
If the specimen is deemed adequate or not, and if more material is requested,
this is noted on the requisition and signed and dated by the Pathologist. This
quick interpretation note is then also typed into the comments section of the
patients Path. report.
I hope this helps.

I could use some help clarifying this question:
**NEW** 04/21/2014
ANP.11525
Tissue/Cytology Assessment Record
Phase I
If a statement of adequacy, preliminary diagnosis, or recommendations for
additional studies is provided at the time of tissue and cytology sample
collection, documentation of that statement is maintained.
NOTE: Documentation might include a note in the medical record or in the final
report.
Is this really asking that if the ordering physician wants something in
particular, it must be noted somewhere?I'm hung up on the mention of
'at the time of sample collection'.
Thanks, Kim
