There are 5 physician-owned diagnostic radiology practices in Alaska, vetted against the NPPES NPI Registry. Hospital-employed, government, and academic positions are excluded.
Before you accept a hospital offer in Alaska, see how many physician-owned diagnostic radiology groups already exist. The answer is 7, and it changes everything you can ask for in negotiation.
For 15 years the path was visible. Pre-clinical, clinical, sub-I, Match, intern year, residency, fellowship. Every transition had a name and a date.
A physician who can see that there are 40 physician-owned diagnostic radiology groups within 50 miles walks into a contract negotiation with completely different leverage than one who assumes the hospital is the only option. Non-compete radius, buy-in terms, tail coverage, all of it becomes more negotiable once you actually know what is around you. The Real Contract course walks you through every clause that matters.
Hospital-employed, government-operated, and academic positions are excluded. These are not independent private practices:

Then your final year starts and the path stops drawing itself. Recruiters start emailing. Contracts show up before you have asked anyone what a contract is supposed to look like.
The senior residents signed their first contracts without reading every clause. Not because they did not care, but because nobody had handed them a map of what else existed. So they took the first offer. This directory exists so you do not have to.
This directory covers 5 independently operated diagnostic radiology practices in Alaska. The data comes from two sources: the NPPES NPI Registry (the federal provider database maintained by CMS) and DataForSEO business listings for contact details and descriptions. I've excluded every practice that doesn't qualify as physician-owned. That means hospital-employed positions, academic roles, and corporate medical groups are filtered out. What remains is 7 practices across 2 cities.
The distinction between physician-owned and corporate-owned isn't just a label. It determines how a practice makes decisions about staffing, compensation, patient volume, and reinvestment. This directory exists because no other resource separates physician-owned diagnostic radiology practices in Alaska from everything else. Every listing has an active NPI, is independently operated, and represents a real opportunity where a physician sets the clinical direction. Not an MBA. Not an investor. A doctor.
Alaska's physician-owned diagnostic radiology directory lists 5 practice locations across 2 cities.
None of the diagnostic radiology practices listed in Alaska carry a PE-Backed or Corporate-Acquired flag. All listings in this directory are physician-owned independent practices verified through NPPES.

Daniel Aragón, MD, MBAThere are 5 physician-owned diagnostic radiology private practices in Alaska, verified against the NPPES NPI Registry. All are independently operated. Hospital-employed, government, corporate, and academic positions are excluded.
A physician-owned practice is one where licensed physicians hold controlling ownership of the business entity. This is distinct from hospital employment, corporate medical groups, or private equity-backed practices where non-physician entities control the business.
The Corporate-Acquired flag means the practice was historically physician-owned but has since been acquired by a corporate entity such as Optum. The MSO-Affiliated flag means the practice uses a Management Services Organization for billing and administration while physicians retain practice-level ownership.
Alaska doesn't have physician-owned independent diagnostic radiology practices in this directory. Diagnostic radiology care here runs through hospital systems like Providence Alaska Medical Center, and Alaska Regional Hospital, and Foundation Health Partners.
NPPES is the National Plan and Provider Enumeration System, a federal database maintained by CMS. Every practice in this directory has an active NPI record in NPPES, confirming it is a registered U.S. medical practice.
Under a W-2 arrangement, the radiology group withholds income taxes, pays half of FICA taxes, and typically provides benefits. Under a 1099 independent contractor arrangement, you pay self-employment tax (15.3% on earnings up to the FICA cap), fund your own benefits, and are responsible for quarterly estimated tax payments. The 1099 gross income is often higher to compensate, but confirm who pays malpractice coverage, as this is a major variable in your net income calculation.
