Teleradiology Credentialing For NDI Teleradiology Clients
The CMS.Gov website states that “The Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services (CMS) has approved four national accreditation organizations (AOs) — the American College of Radiology (ACR), the Intersocietal Accreditation Commission (IAC), The Joint Commission (TJC) and RadSite – to provide accreditation services for suppliers of the Technical Component (TC) of advanced diagnostic imaging procedures. This accreditation applies only to the suppliers of the images themselves, and not to the physician’s interpretation of the image. All (AOs) accreditation organizations have quality standards that address the safety of the equipment as well as the safety of the patients and staff.
NDI’s administrative staff has designed unique protocols to fit the credentialing needs for our centers. Our centers are obligated to meet the guidelines set up for accreditation with Medicare/Medicaid. They are responsible for meeting guidelines on their equipment. Our radiologists maintain their CME’s, DEA certification, ABR Certification in order to interpret studies.
Medicare reporting applications for IDTF’s have to be done regularly as changes occur either with our doctors or their facilities.
We offer direct billing for our clients if needed. We also do Medicare/Medicaid credentialing . NDI as a corporation is credentialed with Medicare as well as each individual doctor in their home state as well.

Accreditation Programs For Diagnostic Imaging Centers In The U.S.
Diagnostic imaging lets doctors look inside human and animal bodies for clues about a medical condition. A variety of machines and techniques can create pictures of the structures and activities inside the body. The type of imaging a doctor uses depends on the symptoms and the part of your body being examined. Ultrasonography is a popular diagnostic imaging tool that looks inside a dog or cat’s body via the use of sound waves.
ACR Accreditation is recognized as the gold standard in medical imaging. The ACR offers accreditation programs in CT, MRI, breast MRI, nuclear medicine and PET as mandated under the Medicare Improvements for Patients and Providers Act (MIPPA) as well as for modalities mandated under the Mammography Quality Standards Act (MQSA). Accreditation application and evaluation are typically completed within 90 days.
The ACR has accredited more than 39,000 facilities in 10 imaging modalities. They offer accreditation programs in Mammography, CT, MRI, Breast MRI, Nuclear Medicine and PET, Ultrasound, Breast Ultrasound and Stereotactic Breast Biopsy.
The Joint Review Committee on Education in Radiologic Technology (JRCERT) accredits educational programs in radiography, radiation therapy, magnetic resonance, and medical dosimetry.
The National Accreditation Program for Breast Centers (NAPBC) provides the structure and resources you need to develop and operate a high-quality breast center. Programs that are accredited by the NAPBC follow a model for organizing and managing a breast center to facilitate multidisciplinary, integrated, comprehensive breast cancer services.

The Intersocietal Accreditation Commission (IAC) is a nonprofit, nationally recognized accrediting organization. The IAC was founded by medical professionals to advance appropriate utilization, standardization and quality of diagnostic imaging and intervention-based procedures.
The IAC is a nonprofit organization in operation to evaluate and accredit facilities that provide diagnostic imaging and procedure-based modalities, thus improving the quality of patient care provided in private offices, clinics and hospitals where such services are performed.
With a 30-year history of offering medical accreditation to facilities within the U.S. and Canada, IAC is also now offering accreditation in international markets. The IAC programs for accreditation are dedicated to ensuring quality patient care and promoting health care and all support one common mission: Improving health care through accreditation®.
