  • Title: Collaborating with hospitals: what radiologists need to know.
    Author: Forster KP, Kennedy KM.
    Journal: J Am Coll Radiol; 2004 Apr; 1(4):261-4. PubMed ID: 17411577.
    Abstract:
    Less than a decade after fears about managed care drove medical students away from subspecialty training, the health care industry faces a deepening shortage of radiologists. Radiologists feel the shortage through busier days, longer hours, and recruitment difficulties. The shortage places many hospitals in a precarious position because diagnostic imaging is both a clinical necessity and a strong financial performer. However, radiology groups are prospering by redefining their relationship with hospitals and developing collaborative strategies.
