Can anyone tell me if writing the preliminary and final autopsy reports count towards duty hours? Thanks.

LOL.
Look - just log 8am - 5pm for Monday through Friday regardless of the hours you work. If you think about it in terms of duty hours and what does and doesn't count you are setting yourself up for a long road. The rules were not written for pathology and it is entirely unclear what does and doesn't count as work in pathology. For instance, how long does it take you to write an autopsy report. If you are writing it "after hours" is it because you are slow?
And, more importantly, if you log a violation things will only be worse for you. If have seen this first hand. Do not get your program in trouble for this. They will make it hell for you. You will get no job recommendations. You will be labeled as entitled and lazy. The program can pay you lipservice, make a few paperwork changes, and then screw you. You need them more than they need you right now. So suck it up. Deal with it. It is only 4 years. Grin, bear it, kiss the right ass, and then move on with your career.
