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
We identify our outside surgical consults as OC, for example OC20-00010

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. Do you assign them an unique number that identifies them as a
consult as opposed to an inside case - SO20- verses
