Scott,
Yes our processor's are hooked up to an alarm (VIP V and VI) in the Clinical
part of the lab with our home phone numbers for them to call. What we ned to
watch is when a clinical person turns off the alarm. Ihave heard it is possible
to have th alarm also hooked into a pager system.

Hey all,
We are looking at doing the double stain CD3/20 and wanted to know how everyone
is billing for it. Can we bill for 2 immuno stains? Or do we have to bill for
one? What is the proper CPT for doing double or even triple staining? We are a
Medicare facility.
Thanks

We have excellent sucess in decalcifying the bone prior to processing. We make
sure the core has been in fixative for 2 hrs prior to the 20 mins in the decal
solution (DeCal STAT). It is then rinced in water and placed in line for

Hello to the World Wide Histo's,
We are looking at getting a new processor and was wondering what everyones
feelings were on the Excelsior from Thermo vs the VIP 6 from Sakura. We have a
VIP5 right now and it is a delight. The demo of the Excelsior was very
impressive. Thanks for your thoughts.
