Diagnostic Centers of America (DCA)

What Diagnostic Centers of America (DCA) does

Diagnostic Centers of America (DCA) was a Delray Beach, Florida-based outpatient diagnostic imaging practice founded in 1992, operating a network of nine imaging centers across the South Florida market spanning Palm Beach Gardens, Wellington, Delray Beach, and surrounding areas. The company provides a broad portfolio of diagnostic imaging and interventional radiology services, including digital mammography, 3D breast tomosynthesis, ultrasound, PET/CT (with Brain FDG and Prostate variants), bone density (DEXA) scanning, and interventional procedures, alongside teleradiology interpretation for referring providers. Its customer base is dual-channel: individual patients (both physician-referred and self-referred, accessed via phone, the patient portal, or walk-in) and referring physicians served through the INSIDERAYUS.COM provider portal with standardized order forms, CPT codes, and contrast guidelines. Revenue is generated on a fee-for-service basis with billing routed through insurance carriers (Oscar Insurance is explicitly accepted at all South Florida locations) and direct patient payment; specific pricing is not publicly disclosed. DCA's legal entity remains in operation but has been acquired by and rebranded as RAYUS Radiology, South Florida, retaining the same staff and physical locations while now operating inside a 20+ market national imaging network. The South Florida operation continues to emphasize women's imaging via Wellington Women's Care (a women-only center) and maintains ancillary brand-building relationships as Official Medical Provider to US Ski & Snowboard, US Speedskating, and USA Bobsled/Skeleton.
