You can get Sharpies and highlighters in at least 7 different colors. We

Needless to say, a 10-20% cut in the TC of 88305, coming down the pipe in a

Prostate-Test Fees Challenged
By CHRISTOPHER WEAVER
Doctors in urology groups that profit from tests for prostate cancer
This is all about the money. The rest is rationalization.
The reason a group of non-pathologist physicians opens an in-house
pathology lab and hires an employee pathologist is first and foremost
to harvest profit from pathology reimbursement. Be a fly on the wall in the
partners' meetings and you

What we have here is market distortion by a payment scheme that
doesn't reflect the real costs. You have to ask yourself why would a
urologist/dermatologist/gastroenterologist want to mess with a
histology lab?

Can you cite some authority or reference on this? I'm very interested in
the answer.
This issue came up a year or so ago in our practice. It was determined that
we couldn't charge extra for the Diff-Quik, but I'm not sure I understood
why not. I was trained to interpret all thyroid FNA's with

You're scrapping for pennies. Or is this some sort of green initiative?
