Hi Allison - We couldn't afford the program offered by our LIS vendor, but since they are published annually, we have a fabulous transcriptionist that updates and reformats all of ours every year. She saves them as a "quick text" in the LIS. They are accessible to all who are dictating/transcribing reports. It's not very sophisticated, but it is cheap, reproducible, easily implemented, and most of all, compliant.

Our LIS software makes it quite difficult for us to integrate these as templates. Do most labs have this built into their LIS, is there external software or programs that you use, do your pathologists just take responsibility for getting this information into the report? Any advice is most appreciated Thanks Allison _______________________________________________ Histonet mailing list Histonet@lists.utsouthwestern.edu http://lists.utsouthwestern.edu/mailman/listinfo/histonet
