I have a quick ? for the attendings/senior fellows etc.
How do you deal with outside molecular reports, crap like OncotypeDx where the reports are huge 21-primer data sets with broad sweeping conclusions (one example, there are others...)?
Do you review them and have them typed into the EMR and actually sign them out? Or do you treat them like esoteric clinical lab test and simply input the data into the EMR and fax the report to the clinicians without a staff pathologist having to sign them??
Im very nervous about signing this crap out when I have many doubts about its scientific validity to begin with.
