Meridian Radiology Exchange Fellowships

A reciprocal radiology reporting exchange between public health systems

The night shift, reported in daylight.

Meridian Fellowships place radiologists in partner departments roughly twelve hours away, where their home department's night is their own working day. Employment, registration, patients: all stay home. Only the radiologist moves.

Programme in Development Seeking Pilot Partners Led by Health New Zealand Not Government Policy

Corridors shown are currently in development

Rested, daytime reporting

A department's overnight studies are read in someone's daytime. Final reports, straight into the home system, with no morning re-read.

Everything stays home

Employment, registration, indemnity and clinical governance all stay put. No radiologist ever reads another country's patients.

Reciprocal by design

Every participating system both sends and hosts. Outsourcing spend is minimised by keeping reporting resource within public systems.

The opportunity, and how the model works Why & How

The corridors

Meridian is a working proposal. The ask right now is founding departments to co-design pilots, and the radiologists who would form a first cohort. What we're asking
