General Health System (MGHS) is pleased to announce that the
Cytology laboratory has greatly expanded its Pap smear processing
capacity for conventional Pap smears and Thin Prep® Pap
Tests. We are now prepared to accept additional
Pap Smear cases from across the country. We have the
ability to do so while continuing to provide rapid turn-around-time
and highly competitive prices.
MGHS offers
clients a variety of Cytology Service options, including the
ability to request “prep-only” services for Thin
Prep® Pap Tests, cytotech “technical” coverage
(i.e. abnormal paps & QC referred to your pathologist),
full-service Pap screening, and in-house reflex HPV typing.
Additionally, we are happy to provide clients with cytology
coverage on a temporary basis.
MGHS has
a fully accredited, full-service clinical laboratory. Our
ASCP certified staff of cytotechnologists and pathologists
ensure that we provide the highest quality cytology services.
Enhanced QC procedures, our Internet-based Test Orders &
Results Product (QORR), and monthly pap summary / statistical
breakdown reports are a few of qualities that make MGHS the
reference laboratory of choice.
