Guest guest Posted February 17, 2008 Report Share Posted February 17, 2008 This listserve has been invaluable as I plan my new IMP (opening in May!) Thanks to everyone. As I get closer to my start-up date, however, my need for advice is becoming more frequent (funny how that happens). First, I've already filed for an NPI. That's portable, right? I just use the same number in my new office? Second, we've been talking a bit about pap gear, and I've been debating the relative merits of plastic vs. metal. I've always preferred metal, and want to be green. But the cost of an autoclave (plus the room needed) may be prohibitive. Is there any way to clean a speculum besides owning an autoclave? Is there a different sterilization process? Can you send things to an " autoclave cleaning service " ? And what about skin procedures--are you all using disposable instruments as well? Third, I need advice about laser printers that are compatible with Vista. I need a printer with software that will allow for scanning to PDF and faxing, but I'm having a hard time finding a reasonably priced machine that interfaces with vista. Any good options out there? Thanks so much! Jen Wallace Oh, and can't wait to meet some of you at IMP camp! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
