Success! Laboratory Management
Questions and Answers
What section of the clinical laboratory is regulated by the Food and Drug
Administration?

A. Chemistry
B. Blood Bank
C. Serology
D. Hematology - answer B. Blood Bank
Immunohematology (blood bank) is the only
laboratory section that is regulated by the Food
and Drug Administration (FDA). The FDA
enforces the Food, Drug, and Cosmetic Act. This
Act regulates the preparation of blood and blood
products as well as the facilities, including hospital
laboratories and transfusion services,
where preparation occurs.

The abbreviation MBO stands for which of the following?

A. Means by objectives
B. Management by objectives
C. Management by order
D. Measurement by objectives - answer B. Management by objectives
Management by objectives (MBO) is a management
system developed in the 1950s and
widely used by many organizations, laboratories,
and businesses. MBO uses various management
concepts of planning, participation,
motivation, and controlling. This system uses
performance objectives as a means of accomplishing
management goals.

A number of management styles are used by supervisors in laboratories. Which of the
following is not a management style?

A. Autocratic
B. Consultative
C. Formal
D. Democratic - answer C. Formal
The word "formal" is not descriptive of the
type of leadership style used by laboratory managers.

,"Autocratic," "consultative," "persuasive,"
and "democratic" are words that describe the
styles routinely used, although rarely as purely
one style; instead, a combination of various styles
is used generally. Managers who are autocratic hold Theory X philosophies and allow
for little
input from their staff. Managers who are democratic
are Theory Y managers and are participatory
in their leadership style, actively seek advice
and counsel from their coworkers, and allow
employees to share in the decision-making process.
Various factors, such as the situation, the
individuals concerned, and the complexity of
concepts involved, will determine what is appropriate.

What is the meaning of the abbreviation FTE?

A. Full-time equivalent
B. Full-time expenditure
C. Fixed total expenditure
D. Fixed-timely equivalency - answer A. "Full-time equivalent" (FTE) is a term
routinely
used by every laboratory, particularly during
the budget process. An FTE equals 2080
person-hours paid in 1 year's time. An FTE combines
productive hours and nonproductive hours
(i.e., vacation, holiday, and sick time). The FTE
is based on a 40-hour workweek and is more
easily used in a discussion of personnel and
hours worked. In one FTE, one full-time person
or two or more part-time persons may occupy
the 40-hour position.

Most laboratories have a definite structure that establishes the formal setup of the
various departments and levels. Which of the following refers to this structure?

A. Administration table
B. Laboratory directory
C. Report of contact
D. Organizational chart - answer D. The organizational chart shows the lines of
supervision, relationships of various staff members,
and interrelationships of the various
departments. There are generally three types of
organizational charts: vertical, horizontal, and
circular. Most hospital administrations use the
vertical chart, which is a summary or a snapshot

, of the structure of the organization. It is also
used by many levels of laboratory management.

In a budget, what terminology is used to describe money spent for a nonexpendable
item that has a life expectancy greater than one fiscal year?

A. Expenditure
B. Annual cost
C. Capital expenditure
D. Depreciable item - answer C. The term "capital expenditure" refers to the
money spent for nonexpendable items having a
life expectancy of more than one fiscal year. Capital
expenditures are generally for permanent
items of equipment and laboratory improvements
in the physical setup of the laboratory. Very often
such equipment items are high-cost items and
require the approval of the institution's budgetary
administration.

Which governmental legislation has had the greatest impact on the health care
industry?

A. Clinical Laboratory Improvement Act
B. Medicare and Medicaid
C. Fair Labor Standards Act
D. Occupational Safety - answer B. Although the other items have had an impact
on health care today, the Medicare and Medicaid
legislation of 1966 has had the greatest influence
on the industry because it determines the reimbursement
of healthcare services. This legislation
provides a mechanism for financing the
healthcare of elderly persons and poor persons.
In 1960, the federal government financed 9.3%
of health care. In 1984, 29.6% of all healthcare
expenditure was paid by the federal government
through Medicare and Medicaid, and this figure
continues to rise. As of 2004, this agency is
known as the Centers for Medicare and Medicaid
Services (CMS).

practice, occupation, or activity?
