Joint Commission recently inspected our Laboratory and cited us for not having the report date/time on all our reports. They didn't require that it be "per test," but at least per specimen or specimen report. Meditech seems to be in the dark about how to do this. We started with a report fragment to capture the print date/time, but it won't put it on the report until after the report prints (subsequent prints). Their other solution, indexing the run date/time on a "cover page" won't tie the report date/time to the actual specimens it covers. Has anyone faced this issue and resolved it to the satisfaction of Joint Commission.
