Position Overview

This role covers afternoon and evening interpretation across a broad mix of hospitals and health systems nationwide. The evening window is primarily emergent and urgent, with some routine studies earlier in the block. You read in a single environment that brings together PACS, RIS, dictation, reporting, and operational support, with fast access to subspecialist colleagues for consults anytime.

What the Evening (Mid Shift) Looks Like at vRad

The evening shift covers peak afternoon and evening emergency volume, primarily emergent and urgent studies, read fully remotely. When your shift ends, it ends: no personal worklist to clear and no obligation to stay late. Instant peer and subspecialist consults are built into the platform, with the ability to transfer cases to colleagues if clinically pragmatic. Plus, evening hours are paid at a higher rate, with additional shifts available if you want them.

Responsibilities

• Interpret emergent diagnostic imaging studies remotely
• Communicate critical findings to referring physicians
• Participate in peer review
• Collaborate with operational and IT support teams
• Maintain accurate, compliant documentation
• Deliver timely, high-quality interpretations

Typical Case Mix

Primarily emergent/ED studies, with some routine studies in earlier hours. CT 41-43%, X-Ray 35-37%, CTA 10%, Ultrasound 8%, MRI 4%.

Compensation

vRad’s compensation is transparent and productivity-based, and every radiologist reads on the same published rates regardless of tenure. You’re paid by vRad’s Work Unit, calibrated to the time and effort each study takes (which also removes the incentive to cherry-pick), and you can track your earnings in real time. There are no minimum reading quotas; shift rates are published and consistent, with higher pay for nights, weekends, and holidays, and a bonus rate if you choose to pick up extra shifts, so your income stays in your control. For this role, estimated annual compensation runs $425,000-$775,000, based on productivity and volume.
