The Right Test, The First Time.

CareCore National raises the quality bar in radiology by insisting that health plans’ participating imaging centers employ board-certified physicians and licensed technicians. We have designed participation criteria to guarantee access to timely, appropriate exams with prompt professional interpretation and reporting back to your doctor. Our certification requirements, driven from evidence based medical literature, ensure that the exam you receive is the most applicable to your condition.

At CareCore, we understand that undergoing a diagnostic imaging test can be both stressful and confusing, and that you may have questions and/or concerns about the upcoming process. In addition to the information your doctor provides, you may want more information on the ordered exam. The American College of Radiology and the Radiological Society of North America have jointly developed an informational website for patients, www.RadiologyInfo.org. It provides useful information including what you will experience during, and how to prepare for, common diagnostic radiology examinations.

Keep in mind that your health plan coverage policies may have requirements that you must fulfill for a service to be covered. For example, some radiology exams may require precertification (clinical certification) before an exam is performed.
