It’s also quite pricey to opt for given how intensive rapid on-site evaluation goes.

I've seen PathAs do this on daily basis and even they don't know how much stuff costs. I don't even know how much the tests I conduct in micro cost either.

Most of it is up to client services and insurance around here.

We don't get to do frozen section often due to our machine gets broken and the nearest technicians to fix takes around months to come by then additional months to order parts overseas. Quite an inconvenience for training and health care in general but these are expensive to opt for here.

The hospitals that have a working frozen sections have high fees and even these fees are already cheap from recommended rates from our association but you know, we need to adjust because in the end, it's the patients who have no health insurance that are going to pay and I'm understating how pro rates here are being lowballed often.

I get to chat with the secretary/receptionist/encoder for the billing at our department regarding rates as this often gets asked. Now that we got to see the bucket lists of IHC stains and processing/professionals fees upfront, we kinda start getting more conscious about what tests we recommend to clinicians at the bare minimum.
