I was looking at teleradiology options and I was sent a document by Hexarad team regarding 'reporter share scheme'. It says they would give free shares (available through vestd.com) based on how many exams reported every 6 months, with condition being minimum 120 reports per month and exclusive tele reporting only to hexarad. Anyone have any idea regarding this scheme? Is it worth chasing the numbers per month for this?

A few colleagues and myself have emailed teleradiology companies if we could start reporting for them but they just say they're full. How does one even start or get a job with these companies or do I have to wait for someone to retire (like the NHS consultant jobs)?

Hi fellow rads,

I have just recently passed the 2A (what a relief). I am planning to sit the October sitting. I have not yet started any revision for this so whatever I have now is my decaying 2A knowledge bank.

I was wondering if it was a good idea to sit the October sitting and if so what do you think the roadmap should look like in terms of what resources I should use and to what intensity I should revise them (eg people say you should know crack like the back of your hands for 2A)?

If someone CCTs outside london (but within England) but wants to work in London/ do a fellowship in London post CCT, is it alot more competitive?

Im assuming London trainees will have somewhat of an edge but are the chances or relocating to London from outside of London (within the Uk) difficult? Or is it more experience?

I was enquiring MDS, MPS and MDDUS for indemnity with approximate gross private income of 40k (I have no idea, just a blind guess; through teleradiology) in addition to the NHS work. And the quotes from MDS and MDDUS are for 5.8k (what?) and MPS for 2.4k. Why this much variability, and how do they calculate this?
