Amy, Happy Friday to you!!! We normally stamp our requisitions with a number and when accessioning we tell Meditech what the number is rather than Meditech assigning a number to the case. So, when there is a down time, we continue stamping the requisitions, labeling the specimens, making the cassettes and grossing in. After Meditech comes back up, we accession all the specimens at once. Hope this helps. Wanda
