Surgical Secretary Compentancy - Funny you should mention this as I had just finished a review containing just such a competency, just before reading this. Our Surgical Secretaries take an annual typing test for word speed, have to demonstrate knowledge of certain computer functions, proficiency at using certain LIS reporting functions, meeting typing and send out TAT and also a few basic office items, such as answering the phone correctly and billing of miscellaneous send out tests. I hope this helps, Terri
