Supplemental, Vacation, and Temporary Coverage

What risk/exposure does your practice have regarding turnover/illness/vacation/overflow?  Would employees be happier if they could take a week’s vacation and not come back to a huge stack of studies for which they need to complete the final report? When someone quits, who takes up the slack?  Does this prolong the return of the final report?  What effect does this have on your referring physicians? Staff turnover can be costly. Reduce your risk of staff turnover using Optimal.  We can provide radiology coverage for temporary situations, including periods when you may be hiring to fill to job opening, vacations, illnesses, etc. This enables you to effectively manage workload regardless of your staffing level. It also enhances the morale and satisfaction levels of your radiology team to know that workload will be effectively handled whenever there is a need for them be off work.

In addition to scheduled temporary coverage, Optimal can also provide on-demand supplemental coverage to help strengthen your own radiology capability.  Don’t like reading a complicated shoulder or would prefer to have someone else take the ultrasound workflow so you can concentrate on delivering high quality interpretations in other areas?  Optimal is very happy to provide this sort of study-to-study backup support.  We know that when your radiology team is freed to focus on what they do best, everyone wins, including the referring medical staff, your radiology team, the facility (improved efficiency can increase imaging volume) and, most importantly, the patient.
