title: A simple cost control format in clinical laboratories.
abstract: Laboratory scientists must be able to demonstrate their proficiency not just in the analysis of specimens but also financial management. The cost information in real dollar term is the only way to measure the productivity of a laboratory. We have demonstrated a simple procedure in tabulating the income and expenditure of our laboratories. In our hand, we have found the information to be useful and timely for various decisions and plannings.
