Hi Lori,
You can monitor specimen integrity (quality of processing and staining),
Turn-around-time, employee competency and much more. Contact me if you
need more information.

Subject: [Histonet] quality assurance


please I need help!!!!!!!!! I am looking for a new quality assurance
indicator 
for Histology. I currently am using specimen/requisition deficiencies.
We have 
been compliant for over 2 years and I need to identify high risk, high
volume 
error prone issue. I can't come up with something new to monitor. What

everyone else use???
