What the Record Tells You

Vestavia Hills Imaging Center is an NPI registry record for an MRI centre and radiology clinic at 2017 Canyon Rd, Suite 25 in Vestavia Hills, Alabama 35216. CMS issued NPI 1902859937 on 19 May 2006, and the organisation last updated its own entry on 13 November 2020. That was 5 years ago, so treat the phone number and suite as unverified until you have spoken to someone there.

The record carries 2 imaging taxonomy codes: Magnetic Resonance Imaging (MRI) clinic/center (261QM1200X) and Radiology clinic/center (261QR0200X). The MRI-specific code means the organisation registered itself as a magnetic resonance imaging centre, the strongest signal the registry gives that a scanner is on site.

Vestavia Hills sits in the Birmingham, AL metropolitan area (Jefferson County), which has 47 imaging-centre records on the Alabama side in the August 2026 file, 9 of them with the MRI code, out of 154 across Alabama. The nearest alternatives in the registry are Vestavia Diagnostic Center LLC (0.1 miles, Vestavia Hills), Shades Mountain Imaging PC (0.4 miles, Vestavia Hills) and Brookwood Womens Diagnostic Center, LLC (1.5 miles, Birmingham), with 2 more within 1.8 miles.

For a cash-pay benchmark, our Alabama range is $450 to $1,100 at freestanding imaging centres and $1,400 to $4,200 at hospitals for a typical single-region MRI. This centre's own prices are not in the registry: call (205) 824-8262 with the CPT code for your scan and ask for the self-pay rate, whether the radiologist's report is included, and the scanner's field strength.

What to ask when you call

  1. The self-pay price for your exact CPT code (70551 brain, 72148 lumbar spine, 73221 or 73721 joint, without contrast), and whether the radiologist's report is included.
  2. Scanner field strength (1.5T or 3T) and whether it is closed, wide-bore or open.
  3. ACR or IAC accreditation, and who reads the images. The registry cannot tell you either.
  4. Whether they accept an order from a telehealth referral if you have no local doctor.

Full list: cheap MRI, good MRI checklist.
