Summary
The bill adds radiologist assistants – certified radiographers who work under a radiologist’s supervision – to Medicare’s list of covered providers. It allows Medicare to pay for the services they perform, but the reimbursement is sent to the supervising radiologist, not the assistant. This aims to expand access to imaging care while keeping patient safety safeguards.
