I wonder if they will cover the tax if the irs decides to call it income to the student.
But good to see. Doctors have been getting squeezed pretty hard recently. Something has got to give. Radiology had around 80 unfilled residency spots a few years ago because of poor career outlook.
No. I think it was just a large drop in compensation along with increase in productivity targets making radiologists less likely to sell radiology to MED students.
Radiology job market improved since then, residency spots are not going Unfilled anymore.
ML may put radiologists out of a job, but it will take some time I think. Lots of changes will happen by then. Radiology is a nice place to be for hacker types in medicine. It’s actually a fun place to do ML research which I do also (radiologist / AI researcher)
Edit: Medicare has walked back some compensation cuts for medical imaging (for multiple procedures on the same day). My tin foil hat theory is the cost cutters got spooked by the prospect of no more us graduates in radiology.
