Independent Radiologist / Imaging Center Owner -- Workflow Consultant

We are hiring licensed radiologists (MD/DO) or independent imaging center owner-operators who currently own, co-own, or operate an independent radiology practice or imaging center for a short-term paid consulting engagement focused on radiology workflow documentation.

This is not a clinical, patient-care, or staff role. We are looking for independent owner-operators who can help us understand how real imaging operations run day to day: the systems used, the handoffs between team members, the operational bottlenecks, and the decisions that come up in common workflows.

Candidates must currently own, co-own, or have executive decision-making authority at an independent radiology practice or imaging center. Applicants without current ownership or equivalent decision-making authority will not be considered for this specific engagement.

What you'll do

You'll participate in remote consulting sessions and help document real-world independent radiology / imaging workflows, such as:

• Imaging order intake and scheduling across modalities (MRI, CT, US, X-ray)
• Insurance authorization and medical necessity for advanced imaging
• Patient registration and pre-exam screening
• Reading worklist, reporting, and RIS/PACS workflows
• Critical results communication and report turnaround
• Billing for technical and professional components, denials, appeals, A/R
• Teleradiology and after-hours read handoffs
• Team handoffs between schedulers, techs, front desk, billing staff, and radiologists

You may be asked to:

• Walk through workflows step by step over Zoom
• Explain what information is needed at each step
• Identify common exceptions, edge cases, bottlenecks, and decision points
• Review process maps, task lists, or SOP-style documentation for accuracy
• Provide written feedback on whether a documented workflow matches how real independent imaging operations work

Required qualifications

• Radiologist (MD/DO) or imaging center owner-operator; radiologists must be in good standing in at least one U.S. state
• Current owner, co-owner, managing partner, or executive decision-maker at an independent radiology practice or imaging center
• Hands-on experience running or overseeing day-to-day imaging operations
• Comfortable explaining operational processes clearly and step by step
• Able to participate in remote calls from a private workspace
• U.S.-based

Engagement details

Rate: $75–150/hr

Important note

This opportunity is specifically for independent radiology / imaging center owners, co-owners, and owner-operators. If you are an employed or staff clinician without current independent ownership or direct decision-making authority, this role is likely not the right fit.
