Meditech Specimen Expiration date/time


Recommended Posts

Can anyone with meditech experience provide me with a rule that will have a patient sample expiration date be 3 days from sample collection at 2359 (per AABB). Meditech has only been able to assist (?) me with an expiration date/time of 3 days at 2301 since we went live in 2009. Thank you.

Hi Susan,

I have only been able to get it somewhere between 2301 and 2359 based on rules.  Meditech was not helpful at all.  If the specimen was collected exactly on the hour, then it will expire at midnight.  However, if it was collected any time after the top of the hour, it is 23xx (coll time = 1220, then it expires at 2320; if at 0501, then it expires at 2301).
