### Maintain Laboratory Excellence Through Anonymous Reporting

Laboratory specimen handling is critical to patient safety and diagnostic accuracy. When concerns arise—whether related to protocol violations, equipment malfunctions, or potential quality issues—having a confidential reporting channel is essential for maintaining CAP (College of American Pathologists) compliance and protecting patient outcomes.

This **Anonymous Laboratory Specimen Handling Concern Report** template is designed specifically for clinical laboratories, pathology departments, and medical testing facilities that need a secure way for staff to report concerns without fear of retaliation. Whether you're managing a hospital lab, reference laboratory, or specialized testing facility, this form provides a structured approach to capturing critical safety information while maintaining reporter confidentiality.

#### Why Paperform is Ideal for Laboratory Reporting

**Paperform** makes it simple for laboratory professionals and healthcare administrators to create professional, secure reporting forms that meet industry compliance requirements. The intuitive doc-style editor lets you customize questions, add conditional logic for different concern types, and create a form that matches your laboratory's branding and reporting protocols.

With Paperform's **conditional logic**, you can route different types of concerns (pre-analytical, analytical, post-analytical) to appropriate follow-up questions, ensuring you gather all relevant details for investigation. Reports can be automatically sent to quality managers, laboratory directors, or compliance officers, while keeping the reporter's identity completely anonymous.

For laboratories with complex quality management systems, **[Stepper](https://stepper.io)** can extend your reporting workflow even further. Once a concern is submitted, Stepper can automatically create investigation tasks, assign them to the appropriate personnel, log incidents in your quality management system, and trigger corrective action procedures—all without manual data entry.

This template is SOC 2 Type II compliant and includes robust privacy controls, making it suitable for healthcare environments where confidentiality and data security are paramount. Paperform's commitment to security means you can trust your sensitive laboratory concerns are handled with the same care you give to patient specimens.

Whether you're establishing a new anonymous reporting program or improving an existing system, this template provides the foundation for a culture of safety, transparency, and continuous improvement in your laboratory operations.
