Kaiser, Geisinger: the first of similar headlines?

June 2023—Consolidation in health care makes the news often. But the coming together of Kaiser Permanente and Geisinger Health and their launch of Risant Health got special attention. CAP TODAY publisher Bob McGonnagle asked Compass Group members for their take on the acquisition when they met online on May 2.

Appendiceal lesions: features, subtypes, patterns

June 2023—Although goblet cell adenocarcinoma can label for neuroendocrine markers, it behaves as an adenocarcinoma and is staged as such. And it’s important to distinguish goblet cell adenocarcinoma from tubular neuroendocrine tumor, a rare subtype of neuroendocrine tumor.

The intersection of news, core labs, and lab costs

June 2023—As CAP TODAY assembled its annual guides to chemistry and immunoassay analyzers (for this issue and the July issue), publisher Bob McGonnagle brought together IVD manufacturers and lab leaders to talk about consolidation and ever-larger health systems, technology, efficiencies, and centralized and decentralized testing.

Colorectal cancer next on HER2 horizon

May 2023—Behold the common coin. Note its two sides, its easy flippability. Here is Joseph Pizzolato, MD, with the first coin toss. Given the expanded use of biomarkers with a variety of tumors, and constantly evolving assays, how hard is it for medical oncologists to navigate testing? “It’s not difficult at all now,” says a cheerful Dr. Pizzolato, medical director of the comprehensive therapeutic unit of Sylvester Comprehensive Cancer Center, University of Miami Health System, as well as medical director of the Aventura satellite at Sylvester. With third-party companies integrating test ordering directly into electronic medical records, he adds, “It’s getting even easier to order tests and see the results.” Agreed, says his colleague Rhonda Yantiss, MD, director of surgical pathology, Department of Pathology and Laboratory Medicine, University of Miami Miller School of Medicine. And therein lies the problem. “It’s kind of a mess,” she says. In practice, precision medicine is becoming both more and less precise.

‘Hundreds of variants’—Staying alert to HbA1c method interference

May 2023—Of the five methods used to measure HbA1c—immunoassay, boronate affinity, enzymatic, capillary electrophoresis, and ion-exchange HPLC—only the latter two can alert the laboratory and physician to the presence of a suspected hemoglobin variant. Even so, there are reasons to be cautious.

Supported? Satisfied? Keeping staff from moving on

May 2023—When hiring is difficult, how to improve retention becomes what it’s all about. Linking sign-on bonuses with performance metrics rather than time in the job is one way to try to retain employees in an industry in which demand for staff far outweighs the supply.

Appendiceal lesion cases, clues, and cautions

May 2023—How to distinguish appendiceal diverticular disease and appendiceal polyps from mucinous neoplasms was just part of a CAP22 course on appendiceal lesions, led by Maryam Pezhouh, MD, MSc, of the University of California, San Diego, and Jacqueline Birkness-Gartman, MD, of Johns Hopkins University School of Medicine.
