Episode description

In this episode of the BackTable Podcast, host Dr. Ally Baheti and Dr. Paramjit “Romi” Chopra discuss the processes involved in successful interventional radiology practice management. Dr. Chopra is an interventional radiologist practicing in Chicago, IL. He is the founder and CEO of Midwest Institute for Minimally Invasive Therapies.


Dr. Chopra advises young IRs against going solo, and he suggests finding people who’ve done it before, to avoid “reinventing the wheel.” Dr. Chopra emphasizes the importance of adopting a patient-centered approach, building systems, developing business sense, and understanding risk. He shares his own experiences of building systems using Salesforce and explains the concept of ‘omni-channel healthcare delivery’. He particularly discusses the importance of patient, provider, and payer relationships, and he offers solutions for dealing with inherent complications. The episode also covers identifying the right electronic health record and developing an effective inventory management system.
