The 50 Largest Radiology Practices
Why compile a list of the 50 largest radiology practices? We acknowledge that the list is far from complete, and that there may be some inconsistencies in the way that respondents answered the questions. Some radiology groups chose not to respond, and some may not have been aware that the survey was being done, so they are not included in the list. We do believe, however, that this is a pretty good start. We expect greater accuracy next year and more respondents every year.
The benefits of such a survey are well understood in other fields. In the accounting world, each year, we wait for a couple of organizations to publish their annual list of the largest accounting firms in the country. I see three main benefits of this distinction.
- It can be a source of organizational and employee pride to be able to say that you are one of the largest groups in the country.
- It can be used as a recruiting tool for new radiologists; some will see bigger as better.
- It can possibly be of benefit in contracting.
