What is an independent contractor radiologist?

An Independent Contractor Radiologist is a medical professional who interprets medical images, such as X-rays, MRIs, and CT scans, on a contract basis rather than as a full-time employee. They typically work with multiple healthcare facilities, providing diagnostic expertise remotely or on-site. These radiologists have more control over their schedules and workload but are responsible for their own taxes, benefits, and malpractice insurance.
