Hospitals would love to fire all radiologists and replace them with software.

They've already done it with outsourcing; a large chunk of what used to be done entirely in-house has been contracted out to remote overseas doctors.

What is outsourced to overseas doctors today? I'm assuming you're talking about the US.

From what I understand it isn't even possible generally to see a doctor remotely in a cheaper state, because medical licensing is per-state.

Medical Scans are reviewed abroad. This practice started in Dentistry in the 90s/early 2000s but expanded to Radiological scans as well. At this point most CT, MRI, and XRay scans in the US have a first pass analysis done by doctors in India+Pakistan.

Medical billing has also been offshored to India+Pakistan btw

In general, a lot of back office Dental+Medical functions were outsourced in the 2000s+2010s.
