Problem
Radiologists face high rates of burnout driven by heavy workloads, inefficient worklists, and non-clinical administrative burdens. Traditional radiology groups often prioritize corporate profits and shareholder returns over physician autonomy, leading to unsustainable schedules and a lack of control over medical decision-making.
Solution
Aligned Radiology Services provides a 100% physician-owned teleradiology practice that offers radiologists fully remote work with a minimum 7-on/21-off schedule and industry-leading per-click pay. The group uses Cortex PACS, an AI-powered, cloud-native imaging platform built by a practicing radiologist, which features AI-driven worklist managementainer, subspecialty auto-routing, and real-time turnaround-time alerts to streamline workflow and reduce burnout. Radiologists retain clinical autonomy, with decisions made in the reading room rather than by outside investors, and participate in an incentive program from their first month.
Target Audience
The primary audience is board-certified or board-eligible radiologists (MD or DO) holding an active medical license in at least one U.S. state, seeking fully remote, flexible teleradiology positions with strong compensation and clinical independence.
