[epicproviders] Effective 9/19/2022: Respiratory (COVID-19) Pathogen Panel

[Epic - All Provider Staff]

Inpatient/Emergency Department Providers

Effective Monday September 19, 2022: COVID included in Respiratory Pathogen Panel. The molecular panel Microbiology uses to detect respiratory viruses and select bacteria (Respiratory Pathogen Panel, LAB9285) is no longer being manufactured without SARS CoV-2. Therefore, all Respiratory Pathogen Panel orders will include SARS CoV-2 within a new order code (LAB9750). Current panel results remain unchanged, but the SARS CoV-2 result will be included in the same report. Stand-alone SARS CoV-2 testing is still available but is unnecessary if a Respiratory Pathogen Panel has been ordered.
