What is a Radiologist?

A radiologist is a physician (medical doctor) who completes an additional one-year internship and a four-year residency in diagnostic radiology. Many radiologists spend more years beyond this level of education to obtain subspecialty fellowships such as neuroradiology, pediatric and interventional radiology.
The radiologist supplies your physician with consultation and information needed to provide you with appropriate care and treatment.

How Much of My Bill Will Medicare Pay and Am I Responsible For the Difference?

Medicare pays 80% of their approved amount and you are responsible for the remaining 20%. If you have secondary insurance, NTDI will bill it directly. If you have no other insurance, we will send you the bill for any remaining amount owed.
