What It Is and Why It Matters

The AHRA Benchmarking Survey is a vital initiative that collects essential operational performance metrics from imaging leaders nationwide. It provides a structured platform for participants to share select performance measures and operational insights, which are then compiled into a comprehensive dataset to support benchmarking, identify best practices, and drive performance improvement across the field.

Survey Sections

There are five core sections of the survey; each an opportunity for respondents to share specific and associated performance metrics:

  • Organizational Overview
  • Outpatient Access by Imaging Modality
  • Staffing Structures
  • Key Performance Metrics
  • Data Analytics and Reporting Capabilities
