ARTICLES

Cytopathology in focus: ABPath CertLink pilot open to all

January 2019—The American Board of Pathology subspecialty certification examination in cytopathology is given each fall at the ABPath office in Tampa, Fla. Cytopathology has the largest number of examinees of the 11 pathology subspecialty examinations.

Daniel J. Hanson, MD, 1928–2018

January 2019—Daniel J. Hanson, MD, a member of the CAP Board of Governors from 1993 to 1999, died on Nov. 2, 2018. Dr. Hanson was president and medical director of Pathology Laboratories in Toledo, Ohio, until he retired in 2005. He was also clinical professor of pathology emeritus at the University of Toledo College of Medicine.

Rapid PCR rules as labs ready flu arsenal

December 2018—With the memory of the 2017–2018 “high-severity” influenza season fresh in mind—49 million cases, 960,000 hospitalizations, a marginally effective vaccine, 79,000 deaths—clinical laboratories have been bracing for the customary annual surge in emergency room, outpatient clinic, and physician office influenza test orders. Although flu admissions have been rising somewhat, it is too soon to know how the season will play out, but laboratories are hoping for a season closer to average. Avoiding a repeat of last year’s travails—lengthy turnaround times, supply shortages, and the need to triage patients for testing—is a must, many laboratory directors say. “We had difficulty keeping up with last year’s demand. It was extremely time-consuming,” says Mary Kay O’Connor, national laboratory director at Summit Health Management, the management arm of the Summit Medical Group, an 800-provider practice on the East Coast.

Multiplex for allergy dx: powerful, but it has its place

December 2018—In allergy testing, microarray technology offers speed and the benefit of smaller sample volumes, but it has a lower sensitivity and is unable to detect IgE antibodies of all specificities in a given extract unless all allergens are on the chip. For routine use, singleplex assays are here to stay.

Could CGM dethrone HbA1c for office-based diabetes care?

December 2018—A glucose sensor the size of a quarter placed on the body and a sensor filament inserted under the skin could potentially disrupt traditional diabetes care with its continuous monitoring of glucose almost 300 times a day. Blood glucose can fluctuate widely during the day even in completely healthy people, said David Sacks, MB, ChB, in an interview with CAP TODAY.

Drug overdose deaths and toxicology tests: Let’s talk

December 2018—Drug overdose deaths in the United States continue to rise, and recently many of these deaths have been attributed to opioids, including fentanyl, fentanyl analogs, and other opioid receptor agonists. The rise in drug overdoses and drug-related deaths, and the devastating effects of the opioid crisis, highlight the need for communication and coordination among forensic pathologists, hospital clinicians, and laboratorians.

 

Higher pay for fibrinolysins interpretation in ’19 fee schedule

December 2018—The CMS finalized its 2019 Medicare physician fee schedule and its response to the CAP’s recommendations to raise payment for fibrinolysins interpretation and reporting and to forgo a proposed decrease to the physician work value for blood smear interpretation. The Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services on Nov. 1 published the 2019 physician fee schedule. Services on the physician fee schedule are composed of three relative value units designated by the CMS: physician work, practice expense, and malpractice liability RVUs. Each RVU is separately valued and summed to equal the total RVU for each physician service on the fee schedule. The CAP advocates for the appropriate valuation of pathology services through its representation on the advisory committee of the AMA/Specialty Society Relative Value Scale Update Committee, known as RUC.

AMP case report: Discordant IHC/PCR test results for mismatch repair status in colorectal adenocarcinoma

December 2018—CAP TODAY and the Association for Molecular Pathology have teamed up to bring molecular case reports to CAP TODAY readers. AMP members write the reports using clinical cases from their own practices that show molecular testing’s important role in diagnosis, prognosis, and treatment. The following report comes from Duke University Medical Center. If you would like to submit a case report, please send an email to the AMP at amp@amp.org.
