How will the CARE bill affect personnel staffing?
The CARE bill will ensure that all medical imaging and radiation therapy professionals meet federal standards. A generous timeframe will be specified for states, employers and individuals to comply. In addition, the CARE bill gives the Secretary of Health and Human Services some latitude to issue alternative regulations based on defined criteria if needed to preserve patients’ access to care. As a historical perspective, a 1976 study conducted by the ASRT and the American College of Radiology showed that mandatory state licensure had no significant effect upon technologist manpower in terms of recruitment, availability or compensation.
