In preparation for an EHR, you are working with a team conducting a total facility inventory of all

forms currently used. You must name each form for bar coding and indexing into a document
management system. The unnamed document in front of you includes a microscopic description
of tissue excised during surgery. The document type you are most likely to give to this form is
A. recovery room record. C. operative report.
B. pathology report. D. discharge summary.

B Although a gross description of tissue removed may be mentioned on the operative note or
discharge summary, only the pathology report will contain a microscopic description.
