Apologies for my last reply which I thought had been addressed as an

Subject: High risk bloods
Does anybody add a Read code to their patients' clinical record to indicate
that blood samples from that patient would be considered high risk, e.g. the
patient has HIV, Hep B or C?
If so, which Read code do you use?
If not, what protocol do you use to ensure that both phlebotomist and
laboratory are aware of the high risk status?
