The Office Laboratory Director's Guide

Paul Fischer, MD; Lois Anne Addison, MLT(ASCP)

JAMA. 1985;254(20):2941-2945.


Abstract

More than 90% of primary care physicians have access to an office laboratory. These physicians serve as the director of their laboratory services and are legally responsible for test results. This responsibility has become a greater challenge as more sophisticated laboratory testing is available for office use. Yet clinicians find few reliable sources to help them face these changes. This article is intended to serve as a guide for the clinician facing the new responsibilities as laboratory director.
