Isnt my ARRT registration a national license?
No. ARRT certification is voluntary. As you know there are many persons working in the radiologic technology field who are not ARRT-registered technologists. States may accept ARRT-registration as evidence of an individual’s eligibility to receive a state license. There are some federal reimbursement policies that require for certain specific facilities to participate in Medicare and be eligible for reimbursement that technologists be ARRT-registered or certified by another recognized certification organization. However, this policy is not uniformly followed or enforced, necessitating legislation like the CARE bill.
