Getting a biopsy diagnosis into the chart from Yellowstone Urology
When Yellowstone Urology biopsies the prostate or resects a bladder tumor, the specimen requisition is faxed to the lab and the graded pathology — the Gleason score or tumor stage — is faxed back to the chart. The pathology report states the diagnosis and, for a cancer, the grade and stage, so the office can plan treatment. Flag a cancer diagnosis on the cover sheet so it is not treated as routine.
The referral packet Yellowstone Urology receives

Name the patient and the referring physician on the cover sheet so the referral is tied to the record. Keep the confirmation so the referring office knows the referral arrived.
