What the Record Tells You
Western Connecticut Imaging, the trading name of Western Connecticut Health Network Affiliates, INC., is an NPI registry record for a radiology clinic/centre at 901 Ethan Allen Highway, Suite 104 in Ridgefield, Connecticut 06877. CMS issued NPI 1740387182 on 20 September 2006, and the organisation last updated its own entry on 15 July 2025. That is recent, so the contact details are likely current.
The record carries one imaging taxonomy code: Radiology clinic/center (261QR0200X). It registered as a radiology clinic without the MRI-specific code, so ask which modalities it operates before assuming an MRI is available. CMS records it as a subpart of Western RN Connecticut Health Network, INC., so pricing may follow the parent's policies.
Ridgefield sits in the Bridgeport-Stamford-Danbury, CT metropolitan area (Fairfield County), which has 35 imaging-centre records on the Connecticut side in the October 2026 file, 1 of them with the MRI code, out of 118 across Connecticut. The nearest alternatives in the registry are Northeast Radiology PC (5.4 miles, Danbury), Danbury Radiological Associates, PC (6.5 miles, Danbury) and Northeast Radiology PC (6.6 miles, Brewster), with 2 more within 7.2 miles.
For a cash-pay benchmark, our Connecticut freestanding-centre estimate is $750 to $2,000 for a typical single-region MRI. At Connecticut hospitals the cash price is measured rather than estimated: $1,085 to $2,122 for a brain MRI, median $1,626, from 4 of the 11 Connecticut hospitals whose own price files we have read, out of 26 in the state, files dated to August 2026. This centre's own prices are not in the registry: call (203) 894-1444 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 Medicare Paid This Centre (2024)
From CMS's public Medicare claims data for Western Connecticut Imaging (NPI 1740387182). Each row is a scan the centre billed to Medicare for at least 11 patients in 2024.
| Scan | Medicare-approved amount | Centre's billed charge | National median approved |
|---|---|---|---|
| Head CT without contrast CPT 70450 · 68 Medicare scans | $113 | $660 | $98 (401 centres) |
| Brain MRI without contrast CPT 70551 · 36 Medicare scans | $209 | $1,491 | $186 (633 centres) |
| Brain MRI without and with contrast CPT 70553 · 54 Medicare scans | $343 | $2,062 | $291 (588 centres) |
| Chest X-ray, 2 views CPT 71046 · 216 Medicare scans | $35 | $85 | $31 (743 centres) |
| Chest CT without contrast CPT 71250 · 253 Medicare scans | $138 | $839 | $124 (492 centres) |
| Cervical spine MRI without contrast CPT 72141 · 26 Medicare scans | $196 | $1,507 | $165 (719 centres) |
| Lumbar spine MRI without contrast CPT 72148 · 57 Medicare scans | $206 | $1,632 | $180 (810 centres) |
| Shoulder or other arm joint MRI without contrast CPT 73221 · 31 Medicare scans | $220 | $1,454 | $190 (668 centres) |
| Knee or other leg joint MRI without contrast CPT 73721 · 49 Medicare scans | $220 | $1,454 | $187 (733 centres) |
| Abdomen and pelvis CT with contrast CPT 74177 · 209 Medicare scans | $329 | $1,430 | $286 (419 centres) |
| Abdominal ultrasound, complete CPT 76700 · 66 Medicare scans | $122 | $340 | $109 (647 centres) |
| Screening mammogram, both breasts CPT 77067 · 384 Medicare scans | $135 | $442 | $118 (320 centres) |
The Medicare-approved amount is the full amount Medicare accepts for the scan: its own payment plus the patient's share (usually the 20% coinsurance). The billed charge is the centre's own list price on those claims, which Medicare does not pay. Both are averages over the year, and the national column is the median approved amount across every centre that billed Medicare for that scan outside a hospital.
Neither figure is a self-pay quote. If you are paying cash, ask the centre for its self-pay rate for your CPT code and whether the radiologist's report is included.
Source: Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services, Medicare Physician & Other Practitioners - by Provider and Service, 2024 data, read 15 October 2026. CMS does not publish a centre and scan with fewer than 11 Medicare patients, so a scan missing here may still be offered.

Cash-Price Benchmark
What to ask when you call
- 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.
- Scanner field strength (1.5T or 3T) and whether it is closed, wide-bore or open.
- ACR or IAC accreditation, and who reads the images. The registry cannot tell you either.
- Whether they accept an order from a telehealth referral if you have no local doctor.
