Soliciting opinions -
We just had an FDA Mammo inspector ask that we have every radiologist,
radiology technician and biomedical repair technician that we use become
separately badged at every one of our 22 different departmental locations
within our health care system. We have previously treated this as one
Hospial System with but he says that the Landauer Multiple Employer Total
Exposure Report (METER) system that shows when they moonlight is not
enough. By badging each location, you could show exactly where an exposure
was received. (Despite our QC, calibration and area monitor systems.
Intends to write us up as a Class III violation. What do you do on this?
Comments please, so I can present other opinions to my Radiation Safety
Committee.
