Lab West Upper Management?













Monrovia Breaking News!!

Well, you must be a prophet cuz it finally happened. SK has been promoted to Lab manager and MO has replaced her as supervisor. SK had MO doing all of her work, anyway. Everything that SK was either too dumb to do or too lazy to do and that covers almost everything. Now lets see how ruthless little Miss MO is can get.

But never worry, Karma always has a way of working things out. Instant karma is even better. Who's bringing the popcorn?

It's probably only temporary anyway...Monrovia is going to close and all the work will go to San Diego. It was all a part of the master plan. But IF cytotechs are screening more than THE EQUIVALENT (and pay attention to that) of 80 slides per day in CA, Non-gyns and Manual slides included, then they will get caught and CMS will end up on their doorstep soon. I betcha someone has already called if that in fact is going on.

Why do you think Monrovia is going to close? From what I heard, there is no way that San Diego can handle all of that work and stay legal. Are they hiring down in San Diego?
 






How do you know this? The over staffing at the other labs make no sense unless that is the plan. To close Monrovia and divide up the work between the two labs. There are laws limiting the number of Paps that a tech can read in a 24 hour period...the equivalent of 80. There are non-gyns, fna's and biopsies to be read, transcribed and reported.
Neither of these labs can handle the volume now without significant sacrifice to TAT. The Monrovia lab might be expensive, but from the outside looking in, it is state of the art. What a waste to throw that away.

What is the real reason for the drop in volume? Mismanaged transition?

Yes!
