  • 1.  Nighthawk services

    Posted 08-09-2021 17:09
    All - My night coverage provider recently notified me that, because of staffing issues, they will be unable to continue to provide my coverage. As such I am looking for a new nighthawk provider. When searching online this process is overwhelming. Would anyone be willing to provide me with any contact info that they have for night coverage that they have AND are happy with? Feel free to reply off of the forum if preferred.  Thanks.

    Hi Ken, 

    I have experience with vRad, Stat Rad and Vision radiology as vendors.  My favorite is Vision but they are a higher price tag. My feeling is you get what you pay for. They maintain smaller rosters and become more of an integrated part of your team. I also really enjoy Stat Rad.  I like their admin people and have been pleased overall with experiences with them. I know all nighthawk companies are struggling right now with coverage.  We are currently with vRad and I will say I have appreciated their communication on their issues with coverage and specific dates/times they will be struggling.  It is still hard and frustrating because we are now dealing with using our rads to help and they are already burnt out. 

    Other options would be to talk with Strategic Radiology.  I believe that they started a nighthawk program. Happy to talk more if I can be of any help!
