Access speed is your differentiator. Contrast is your bottleneck.
DC facilities compete against academic systems, hospital outpatient departments, and each other for patients who will happily drive twenty minutes to be seen sooner. When contrast studies queue up behind physician availability, you lose those patients. Tether removes the bottleneck with credentialed physicians across every hour you operate and a median response under 23 seconds, so contrast never determines what you can put on the schedule.
What changes when coverage is never the question
Stop rescheduling contrast patients
Grow volume without growing payroll
Technologists who walk in ready
Audit-ready without the paperwork
Live in weeks, not quarters
From first call to first supervised scan
Step one — the twenty-minute call
We scope your sites, modalities, operating hours, and current coverage. You get a straight answer on what your program looks like and what it costs, usually before we hang up.
Step two — we prepare your center
Hardware deployment, physician credentialing and state licensure, technologist training, reaction kit placement, and your supervision documentation. Setup is our job, not yours.
Step three — one button, seconds to a physician
Your technologist presses once and reaches a credentialed physician. Sessions document themselves. You get monthly QA summaries and a partner watching your state's rules.
