Radiology Physician

We are recruiting Board Certified / Board Eligible Diagnostic Radiologists to provide fully remote interpretation services in support of a federal contract with the Providence VA Healthcare System. This is a 1099 independent contractor engagement practice from your own location, set your own equipment, and work independently within your scope of practice alongside (not under the supervision of) VA staff radiologists.

This is not a key personnel contract: we are filling 2.0 FTE of coverage, not naming irreplaceable individuals, so there is flexibility in how the schedule is built and staffed.

Pay is structured across three lines of work. On-call participation is completely optional and does not affect your standing on the clinic schedule.
