Where this comes from

Abstract

The recent implementation of pay for performance by CMS in radiology practices is not going to be an isolated event. Instead, it reflects an early manifestation of what will likely be a revolution in how we work and how we are paid in diagnostic imaging. Examining the factors that underly this revolution are critical for understanding the next waves of change that will drive our future.
