Intelerad CEO Jordan Bazinsky outlines how advanced technology and strategic partnerships can help medical imaging withstand financial, regulatory, and workforce pressures.
Key Details
- 1Medicare radiology reimbursement declined 3.4% in 2024 and 2.83% in 2025, part of a 25% decrease since 2005.
- 2FDA staff reductions may delay imaging device and AI tool approvals, affecting innovation availability.
- 3Radiologist workforce shortage persists; ARRT exam takers fell 18% between 2006 and 2022, with demand for CT and MRI rising 3-5% yearly.
- 4AI, integrated platforms, telehealth, and compliance tools are recommended to improve efficiency, care coordination, and regulatory adherence.
- 5Collaborations with vendors and academic institutions can mitigate outsourcing and strengthen the radiologist pipeline.
Why It Matters
Radiology leaders face mounting financial, regulatory, and workforce pressures. Embracing AI, integrated technology, and strategic partnerships is essential to sustaining operational excellence and ensuring continued patient care quality in the evolving medical imaging landscape.
