Our Mission: Provide the BEST diagnostic imaging
care possible, remotely.
In the United States, as in most places around the
planet, radiologists have gradually been becoming
“de-specialized.”
Why? Even at major academic centers, demands on time,
productivity and financial responsibility have
necessitated radiologists to read outside of their areas
of expertise. It is almost impossible to keep up with
the RVU demands of a clinical department and remain
completely subspecialized. Extrapolate that to non
university practices, and true experts are less and less
common.
TET counters some of the momentum driving
de-specialization by allowing practices to disengage
RVU’s from FTE’s. We are all subspecialists. However,
when you use one FTE of TET, you gain multiple
subspecialists.
How does this work for you? When you need a Neuro MRI
interpreted, you get a neuroradiologist; High resolution
chest CT -- pulmonary radiologist; Virtual
Colonoscopy--GI radiologist; etc.
Under traditional circumstances, this would take your
practice hiring multiple subspecialists. This is
expensive, and over time, these subspecialists get
‘watered down’ by having to read outside of their field.
When you hire TET, you get all of these subspecialists
at your disposal, when you need them.
If you don’t need a neuroradiologist one day, but you
have a lot of musculoskeletal work, then you will get a
musculoskeletal imager. In the middle of the day a brain
MRI comes in, and the neuroradiologist is there for you.
You are paying for the work that gets done--NOT for
the multiple bodies typically required to fill a
practice. |
