It is important to be part of the communities we serve; our pathologists live and work in Tulsa, Bartlesville and Ponca City, Oklahoma and Pittsburg, Kansas. Our team actively assists community philanthropy through financial support and service in our support of Bluestem Foundation, Ardent Cares Foundation, Tahlequah Hospital Foundation, the Good Samaritan Health Services and the St John Foundation.
All orders should be placed with manual test requisitions. A list of requisition forms can be found in the Downloads Library.
For each patient, use a separate container (if multiple specimens and tests ordered) accompany with test request form. PLA may be unable to process specimens that are not in separate containers.
Use a black pen, as PLA will scan the request form for image retrieval.
Complete the information requested at the top of the form.
Mark an “x” in the box indicating the test(s) requested. Record the number of specimens submitted and total number of tests ordered on the test request form in the lower-left corner.
If there is no box for a test you are requesting, write the complete test name in the Other Tests Ordered box.
Keep a copy of the requisition for your record if needed. Please be sure the first page is sent to the laboratory with the sample.
The specimen container must have the patient’s first and last name and unique identifier (example DOB) and specimen type or source clearly indicated on it.
Specimen Requirement: Formalin-fixed paraffin-embedded tissue
