Radiographer
CurrentAs the chief x-ray technologist, in addition to taking digital x-rays, I prepare monthly x-ray schedules and supervise four x-ray technologists. I electronically transmit digital studies to the radiologist for reading and download the reports when done. As needed, I relieve the receptionist and sign patients in and out at the front desk as well as post billing charges, and collect payment or co-payment as indicated. I also answer the telephone and pull charts. I generate, mail, track and do data entry for our Random Drug Testing Consortium following DOT Federal guidelines. I also correspond with the companies in our Consortium, both written and orally. I create forms used for accounting, charting and x-ray and our onsite laboratory management. As needed, I provide translation (English/Spanish) services between staff and patients.
