Vacation, Temporary And Overflow Radiology Coverage
In 2023, the easiest way to get access to vacation, temporary, overflow or nighthawk radiology coverage in the U.S. is to contact the National Diagnostic Imaging Teleradiology Company at 1-800-950-5257 or email info@ndximaging.com.
Vacation and Locums Tenens Radiology Coverage
National Diagnostic Imaging provides 24/7/365 radiology coverage with U.S. board certified, fellowship trained radiologists in all 50 states. Our radiologists are skilled in all imaging modalities, with training in subspecialties as well. NDI utilizes a Locum Tenems team for emergent reads as well as for holidays and vacations coverage. This assures our clients that their specific needs are not compromised. Our Locum Tenems team maintains their own radiologist credentialing as well as Medicare, Medicaid and commercial insurance credentialing.
Temporary and Overflow Radiology Coverage
There are centers that just need “overflow” coverage as well. Though not a regular flow as it is with our clients that we maintain full coverage for, NDI wants to meet the needs for facilities that just need help catching up on their regular daily flow during their very busy times. Facilities need to inquire if interested in taking advantage of this coverage feature.
National Diagnostic Imaging has a team of radiologists servicing multiple municipalities across the United States to assist in coverage for your teleradiology needs, on a temporary basis, as well as a permanent basis or vacation coverage. As needs arise, we provide just the coverage your facility demands.
Trust that whatever the need your center may have, we here at NDI will make sure you are taken care of.
Accreditation Programs For Diagnostic Imaging Centers In The U.S.
Diagnostic imaging lets doctors look inside human and animal bodies for clues about a medical condition. A variety of machines and techniques can create pictures of the structures and activities inside the body. The type of imaging a doctor uses depends on the symptoms and the part of your body being examined. Ultrasonography is a popular diagnostic imaging tool that looks inside a dog or cat’s body via the use of sound waves.
ACR Accreditation is recognized as the gold standard in medical imaging. The ACR offers accreditation programs in CT, MRI, breast MRI, nuclear medicine and PET as mandated under the Medicare Improvements for Patients and Providers Act (MIPPA) as well as for modalities mandated under the Mammography Quality Standards Act (MQSA). Accreditation application and evaluation are typically completed within 90 days.
The ACR has accredited more than 39,000 facilities in 10 imaging modalities. They offer accreditation programs in Mammography, CT, MRI, Breast MRI, Nuclear Medicine and PET, Ultrasound, Breast Ultrasound and Stereotactic Breast Biopsy.
The Joint Review Committee on Education in Radiologic Technology (JRCERT) accredits educational programs in radiography, radiation therapy, magnetic resonance, and medical dosimetry.
The National Accreditation Program for Breast Centers (NAPBC) provides the structure and resources you need to develop and operate a high-quality breast center. Programs that are accredited by the NAPBC follow a model for organizing and managing a breast center to facilitate multidisciplinary, integrated, comprehensive breast cancer services.
