Portable X-ray services

#FFFFFF

Patients are people whose physician determines they should receive X-rays where they are located rather than be transported to a stationary X-ray provider, such as a doctor’s office.

Services include:

  • Diagnostic imaging ordered by a physician for patients in their place of residence, such as their own home or a nursing home.
  • Portable X-rays also may be provided in a hospital that doesn't provide X-rays directly.

The x-ray services can't be fixed at any location or permanently located in a skilled nursing home or hospital.

Professional staff who are routinely available are x-ray technologists.
