With diagnostic imaging waiting lists growing nationwide (source: NHS England) and the ongoing challenges in recruiting and retaining specialist imaging staff, NHS trusts are under increasing pressure to meet patient demand, particularly for cancer and surveillance pathways. These growing challenges require innovative solutions to reduce backlogs while maintaining high standards of care across multiple imaging modalities and critical patient pathways.
Our Diagnostic Imaging Insourcing Model
That's why we've developed our Diagnostic Imaging Insourcing model, tailored specifically to help NHS trusts alleviate waiting list pressures, enhance radiology department efficiency, and support crucial cancer and surveillance pathways. Backed by robust Clinical Governance and operating under National Clinical Insourcing Frameworks, our model draws on a vast network of imaging specialists across a wide range of modalities, including X-ray, CT, MRI, Ultrasound, Mammography, Nuclear Medicine, and Interventional Radiology. We provide the expertise to address patient backlogs, support your trust in achieving diagnostic waiting time targets, and ensure timely imaging for cancer diagnosis and surveillance programs.
Our flexible model can be customized to meet your department's specific needs, offering anything from individual radiographers to fully staffed imaging teams, including Consultant Radiologists, Radiographers, Sonographers, Mammographers, and support personnel. Whether deployed for weekend or evening sessions or to boost midweek capacity, our insourcing solution is Framework-approved and competitively priced against tariff, helping you manage your budget effectively. With teams working extended hours, we deliver a high volume of diagnostic scans across these modalities, ensuring a significant reduction in your waiting lists and supporting rapid diagnosis and monitoring for cancer and surveillance pathways.
Boost clinical capacity,
reduce wait times,
treat more patients.
Our Diagnostic Imaging Insourcing service ensures compliance with national safety and clinical quality standards, including those specific to cancer care and surveillance programs. Each team is fully trained and equipped to maintain the highest levels of care across various imaging specialties, supporting your trust in meeting diagnostic waiting time targets, cancer pathway standards, and delivering exceptional patient outcomes. By choosing our service, you can be confident in providing safe, timely, and efficient diagnostic imaging across diverse clinical areas, with a particular focus on supporting cancer and surveillance pathways.
We can rapidly deploy our Imaging Insourcing Teams, either working alongside your existing staff or independently during evenings and weekends to address backlogs. In a standard 08:00 - 20:00 session, our teams can complete a significant number of scans in modalities like CT, MRI, Ultrasound, Mammography, and others, making a meaningful impact on your waiting list targets and ensuring timely imaging for cancer diagnosis and surveillance. If multiple imaging suites are available, the service can be scaled to accelerate the reduction of diagnostic waiting times and patient backlogs, with priority given to urgent cancer pathway cases and time-sensitive surveillance scans.
Our service is supplied through the NHS National Frameworks, so is priced against tariff ensuring the Trust receives the best value. By helping to avoid financial penalties for breaching diagnostic waiting time targets and supporting the achievement of cancer waiting time standards, our Diagnostic Imaging Insourcing service improves patient care while protecting your Trust from potential fines. This ensures better outcomes and financial sustainability across multiple imaging modalities, with a particular emphasis on maintaining efficient cancer and surveillance pathways.
Our service is designed to integrate seamlessly with your existing cancer and surveillance protocols, ensuring that patients on these critical pathways receive timely and high-quality diagnostic imaging. By reducing waiting times and backlogs, we help your Trust meet the faster diagnosis standard for cancer and maintain regular imaging schedules for patients on long-term surveillance programs, ultimately contributing to improved patient outcomes and experiences.
