What is the general opinion of the level of complexity for the Mohs tech
assisting in a procedure. This includes the embedding, cutting and staining of
the samples only. NOt the inking and marking of margins. Thank you

Does anyone know where to find the High complexity testing requirements for
CAP? We're about to apply for CAP accreditation and want to make sure the
person working in our lab grossing has the requirements. Thanks!

I would just like to thank everyone for all of your comments regarding the

one! I think I understand it a little better now as I have come to the
following conclusion: Although CAP requires strict guidelines and

This is the response I received a year ago from CAP when asked the same
question regarding high complexity testing -
"Immunohistochemistry staining (manual or automated) is
considered specimen processing and is not assigned a test complexity"

The performance of ISH/IHC is in many laboratories considered high complexity
testing - however - as the technologist doing the work does not make the
diagnosis it is considered to be a part of specimen processing.

While the test is high complexity it is the READING of the test by the

Yes, IHC/ISH is considered high complexity testing. Sounds like you have a
