What rates do locum radiologists earn?

General Radiologists (FRANZCR) typically earn $3,000–$4,000+ per day. Interventional Radiologists (FRANZCR IR) often earn $4,000–$5,000+ per day. Rates vary by modality mix (CT/MRI/US/Plain Film/IR), case volume, after-hours cover, tele-reporting, and location (metro vs regional/rural).

Can I work tele-reporting or after-hours only?

Yes. We place radiologists in tele-reporting and after-hours/weekend rosters. You’ll need AHPRA specialist registration, FRANZCR, hospital credentialling, and access to a secure workstation/PACS/VPN. We help set up panel access and align sessions to your preferred schedule.

What credentials and compliance do I need?

You’ll need AHPRA specialist registration (FRANZCR), hospital privileges/credentialling, medical indemnity insurance, radiation use licence (state-based), and standard checks (immunisations, police/WWCC as required). We coordinate all credentialling and onboarding with each imaging service.

How fast can I start a radiology locum contract?

Most placements start within 1–4 weeks, depending on hospital credentialling, radiation licences, and roster needs. Regional and after-hours contracts can move faster. We fast-track paperwork so you can begin onsite lists or tele-reporting quickly.

Do you organise travel and accommodation?

For many hospital contracts, travel and accommodation are included or subsidised. Where needed, we arrange flights, hotels, and car hire, and confirm all details before you accept the assignment. Terms are transparent and confirmed in writing.

How do payments work for locum radiologists?

You’ll submit approved timesheets/reports, then invoice under your ABN (or via the site’s payroll method). We provide clear rate confirmations, assist with billing/POs, and ensure prompt payment. After-hours/IR sessions and tele-reporting blocks are itemised per contract.
