  • Title: The changing role of the medical technologist from technologist to information specialist.
    Author: Miller WG.
    Journal: Clin Leadersh Manag Rev; 2000; 14(6):285-8. PubMed ID: 11210215.
    Abstract:
    Pathology laboratory services are dependent on the laboratory information system (LIS) to organize the work, manage the operation, and communicate the results for effective laboratory medicine. For maximum efficiency, staffing for the LIS should be an integral component of laboratory operations and is facilitated by a two-tier structure. A core LIS staff provides system support and continuous services. A group of bench medical technologists have multitasking responsibilities, including LIS support for a specific laboratory work area. The two components form a team that uses staff efficiently to provide ongoing operational services and flexibility for problem solving and new functionality implementation.
