Insurance just rejected MRI…common?

Radiology Jobs — Sat, 25 Jun 2011 00:14:43 +0000

This seems pretty stupid, but I go to the podiatrist. He seems to think I have some type of tumor (not sure whether it’s benign or malignant) and so he wants an MRI. The podiatrist calls for pre-certification, and is rejected.

This is interesting, since the other day I had just called my insurance company to ask what they would cover for the MRI, and was told they pay 80%.

Any idea what is going on? Is rejection of an MRI a common occurrence of an insurance company?

I ran an empty microwave for about 8 minutes. It still runs just fine. Is it a safety hazard?

Radiology Jobs — Wed, 22 Dec 2010 05:49:31 +0000

I realize a microwave is or so; it’s not a particularly big deal. I guess I’m wondering if there is a chance of radiation leak or the microwave undergoing more structural damage; i.e., blowing up and killing me, my loved ones, or my neighbors. I’ve heard that the newer microwaves have devices that prevent from having damage, but 8 minutes is a very long time I realize. The Microwave was scolding hot, but I let it cool and it does still run / heat.

Should I dispose of it? Or since it still heats should it be okay?

I have just begun to fulfill my pre-requisites. I know radiology and radiography are totally different, but I eventually want to get into radiation therapy. Initially, I will probably just be a x-ray tech.

if i get my bachelors degree in radiology , what jobs will i be eligible for besides just taking x-rays?

Just Finished X-ray School What Is The Best Career Option Mri,nuclear Medicine, Or Radiation Therapy And Why?

Radiology Jobs — Sun, 28 Feb 2010 17:17:59 +0000

Rad Therapy. Currently, there is not too many jobs for Nuc Med and MRI. Rad Therapist also get more money than the rest. Ultrasound is in demand now, but don’t get as much as Rad Therapist.

Can You Become A Mri Tech With Just A High School Diploma Or Do You Need A Degree?

Most MRI technologists are radiologic technologists, who then get on the job training in MRI. You can then take the licensing examination, with the ARRT. If you are considering going to a MRI only program, I would advise against it. Most imaging facilities (either hospitals or free standing imaging centers) want an employee who can do multiple modalities. Without your ARRT, you would be unable to do x-ray examinations and CT scans. I have never worked in a facility who employs MRI only techs, as you are limited in what you can legally do in this field. These programs are generally very expensive, and when you graduate, you will have trouble finding a job.
There are many schools in many states where you can get trained to be a radiologic technologist (the proper term for a x-ray tech). These programs will require you to complete and pass certain college prerequisite courses, before you can apply to their programs. You can attend a hospital based program (and earn a certificate), a 2 year college program (AS degree), and even a 4 year college program (BS degree). The hospital based programs are the least expensive, and honestly, I think the education received there is superior. Once you graduate and take your registry exam, no future employer is going to care what type of educational program you went through. All they care about is your license. You can find an accredited RT program at this site. Just search “radiography” and your state…links are provided which will give you additional information on each program (cost, prerequisite courses, duration of program, contact person):http://www.jrcert.org/cert/Search.jsp
