September 2014—Medical practice is no stranger to good things coming from bad, but lest anyone be in doubt, Children’s Hospital and Medical Center in Omaha provides a striking example. The bad, in this case, was an exorbitant bill for genetic testing delivered several years ago to the parents of a sick child. The family had no idea such an expensive test had been ordered or that their insurance company would not pay for it.
September 2014—With the FDA having approved use of the Roche Cobas assay for human papillomavirus as a primary standalone screen for cervical cancer in women 25 and older, expert panels are faced with the challenge of working the algorithm into current best practice recommendations for cervical cancer screening.
September 2014—Industrial risk management. It may not seem all that sexy as a concept, but in the field of laboratory quality control, risk management has become about as buzzworthy as is possible. One of the key reasons: The Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services has embraced risk management as the foundation of a new option for meeting CLIA quality control standards called IQCP, or Individualized Quality Control Plan.
September 2014—At the 30th Annual Clinical Virology Symposium this spring, Gregory Storch, MD, related a typical case of a febrile child seen in the emergency department. Dr. Storch, a professor of pediatrics at Washington University School of Medicine, described a 20-month-old boy with a fever of 40°C, rash, cough, and nasal congestion but no gastrointestinal symptoms. White blood cell count was 7,800/µL. Blood culture was negative and a chest x-ray showed mild peribranchial thickening. Diagnosis, Dr. Storch says, was “viral syndrome.” The patient got a dose of ceftriaxone, which was “reasonable,” in Dr. Storch’s view, in light of the patient’s fever and the presence of bands on the peripheral blood smear.
