THE CRITERIA

How Diagnostic Imaging & Radiology practices are scored

Every Diagnostic Imaging & Radiology practice is evaluated against its Diagnostic Imaging & Radiology peers on five weighted criteria. The methodology is published in full. A Top 10 only means something if you can see how it was decided.

35%
1. Clean-Claim Performance
First-pass acceptance rate against the specialty benchmark, measured, not self-reported.
25%
2. Patient Financial Experience
Estimate accuracy, assistance matching, and patient-pay yield across the engagement.
20%
3. Denial Prevention & Recovery
Denial rate, appeal win rate, and the strength of the root-cause prevention loop.
15%
4. Operational Efficiency
Days in A/R and cost-to-collect relative to specialty peers of similar size.
5%
5. Peer & Patient Reputation
Verified patient reviews and standing among specialty peers and partners.

The same five criteria apply across every specialty: see the full Unlimited Awards methodology.

DIAGNOSTIC IMAGING & RADIOLOGY AWARDS · FAQ

Top 10 Diagnostic Imaging & Radiology Practices: your questions

What are the Top 10 Diagnostic Imaging & Radiology Practices?

The Top 10 Diagnostic Imaging & Radiology Practices is an annual recognition from Unlimited Systems honoring the Diagnostic Imaging & Radiology practices that demonstrate the strongest revenue cycle performance, measured across clean claims, denial prevention, patient financial experience, and operational efficiency. The 2026 program ranks the top ten Diagnostic Imaging & Radiology practices in each practice-size category.

How are the best Diagnostic Imaging & Radiology practices selected?

Diagnostic Imaging & Radiology practices are scored against their Diagnostic Imaging & Radiology peers using a published, weighted methodology: Clean-Claim Performance (35%), Patient Financial Experience (25%), Denial Prevention & Recovery (20%), Operational Efficiency (15%), and Peer & Patient Reputation (5%). Performance data is anonymized and benchmarked by specialty and practice size, so rankings reflect real Diagnostic Imaging & Radiology billing and RCM results rather than self-reported claims.

How can a Diagnostic Imaging & Radiology practice be considered for an Unlimited Award?

Any Diagnostic Imaging & Radiology practice can be nominated, including self-nominations. Submit a nomination and our awards team reviews it against the published criteria before the 2026 Diagnostic Imaging & Radiology honorees are announced. There is no fee to be nominated or to win.

Are the Diagnostic Imaging & Radiology awards split by practice size?

Yes. To keep the comparison fair, the Diagnostic Imaging & Radiology award runs four separate Top 10 lists by practice size: Solo & Small, Group, Large Group, and Health System, so a small Diagnostic Imaging & Radiology practice is never benchmarked against a large health system. Regional Diagnostic Imaging & Radiology cuts are also available.

How do winning Diagnostic Imaging & Radiology practices display the award?

Each winning Diagnostic Imaging & Radiology practice receives a branded, verifiable Unlimited Awards seal to embed on its website, plus a press kit and a unique certificate id that anyone can confirm on the verification page.
