OAR 847-008-0022: Teleradiology Registration

(1) Teleradiology is the electronic transmission of radiological images from one location to another for the purposes of interpretation or consultation. (2) A physician whose specialty is radiology or diagnostic radiology who practices in a location outside of Oregon and receives radiological images via teleradiology from an Oregon location for interpretation or consultation and who communicates his/her radiological findings back to the ordering physician is practicing teleradiology for Oregon. A physician practicing teleradiology for Oregon is not required to be licensed in Oregon. The Board, however, offers a license with Teleradiology active registration status for those physicians who require such for administrative reasons. (3) Physicians granted Teleradiology active status must register and pay a biennial active registration fee. (4) The physician with Teleradiology active status desiring to have active status to practice in Oregon must submit the reactivation application and fee and satisfactorily complete the reactivation process before beginning active practice in Oregon.
