Radiology compensation is more than just radiologist salaries. It also includes radiologic technologist and interventional radiology compensation, along with other subspecialties. Radiology pay incorporates bonuses, incentives, benefits and vacation time.
Even before the onset of COVID-19, data suggested that rads’ after-hours workloads had doubled in proportion to the increase in emergency department visits in the years leading up to 2020.
Members of the specialty should begin their next job with an exit strategy in mind or risk losing a hefty sum in the process, according to a new opinion piece.
In 2024, the average radiologist saw their compensation climb about 7.5%, up to $571,749, behind only pediatric nephrology (15.6%), preventive medicine (10%), and pediatrics/general medicine (8.5%).
AMN Healthcare received 155 search requests for such specialists, behind only family medicine (279) and NPs (420), according to a recently released report.
