Track Biopsy Specimens Using the Biopsy Log

The Biopsy Log is the master list that stores records of all biopsies for the entire practice. To use the log, you specify a specialty and enter a variety of search criteria, for example, all patients seen by a specific provider on a specific date. The system displays all the biopsy records for patient encounters within the specialty that meet the search criteria. The Biopsy Log enables you to view pathology results for a patient. From the Biopsy Log, you can: Update the order, including the diagnosis. Send tasks regarding the order or results to staff members. Generate and save a benign pathology letter within the encounter. Record how and when a patient was notified of results.
