Inventory tracking for anatomic pathology consultations
First Claim
1. One or more computer storage media storing computer-useable instructions that, when used by one or more computing devices, cause the one or more computing devices to perform a method for coordinating a share event for an anatomic pathology case, the method comprising:
- receiving a command to initiate the share event for the anatomic pathology case;
determining a pool of share recipients to include in the share event;
sending a notification to each of the pool of share recipients, wherein the notification includes a special designation in each share recipient'"'"'s work queue indicating that a request to review the share event for the anatomic pathology case has been received;
determining a plurality of share recipients, based on the share recipients who accept the share request, for the share event;
considering capabilities and expertise of the plurality of share recipients;
identifying physical case materials associated with the share event for the anatomic pathology case;
based on the consideration, determining a schedule for the plurality of share recipients to review the anatomic pathology case, the schedule including an order of review by the plurality of share recipients facilitating sequential review of the physical case materials;
defining a time period for each share recipient'"'"'s review;
monitoring the amount of time each share recipient maintains ownership of the share event for the anatomic pathology case;
notifying the share recipient or share initiator when the time period is nearly reached;
tracking the location of the physical case materials for the anatomic pathology case during the share event;
receiving at least one comment from at least one of the plurality of share recipients after reviewing the anatomic pathology case.

Abstract
An on-line approach to coordinating intradepartmental anatomic pathology consultations, including coordinating access to physical case materials and/or electronic case materials, is provided. In accordance with one method in a clinical computing environment, a command to initiate a share event for an anatomic pathology case is received. One or more share recipients are determined manually and/or automatically for the share event. In addition, whether any physical case materials and/or electronic case materials are associated with the anatomic pathology case is determined. If any physical case materials and/or electronic case materials are associated with the anatomic pathology case, share recipient access to the materials is coordinated. After each share recipient reviews the case, the share recipient may enter comments.
