We understand that, as Hospital CEO, there are multiple factors surrounding each decision that is made. At USTeleradiology, we allow you to outsource low margin radiology to our dedicated staff of professionals.
By partnering with USTeleradiology for your overnight radiology coverage, the Hospital CEO primarily sees the following two benefits:
Productivity of daytime Radiologists & ER Doctors is substantially increased
Recruiting and retention of Radiologists & ER Doctors is greatly improved
No night calls - You perform your routine day shift and our dedicated night radiologists cover your evenings. This facilitates recruiting and retention of radiologists to your practice, increases productivity, and will satisfy referring physicians, hospital administrators, and patient needs at night.
The following factors should also be taken into account when considering outsourcing radiology needs:
15% of all health care in the US is provided by the ER
Up to 40% of hospital admissions are through the ER
Imaging in the ER is growing at 20% a year
Increasing complexity of studies requires dedicated, trained Radiologists for interpretations
Hospital Administrators, ER Doctors, the ACR, and Payors are demanding prompt response for the interpretation of studies
