What the Record Tells You
The Providence Diagnostic Imaging Center, the trading name of Providence Health Services, INC, is an NPI registry record for an MRI centre and radiology clinic at 1150 Varnum St NE Ste 2 in Washington, District of Columbia 20017. CMS issued NPI 1285208009 on 17 May 2021, and the organisation last updated its own entry on 6 May 2022. That was 4 years ago; the details are probably still current, but confirm the address when you book.
The record carries 3 imaging taxonomy codes: Magnetic Resonance Imaging (MRI) clinic/center (261QM1200X) and Radiology clinic/center (261QR0200X) and Mammography clinic/center (261QR0206X). 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. It also holds 2 other taxonomy codes (293D00000X, 335V00000X). One other imaging record shares this street address: Metropolitan Radiology Associates Chartered. CMS also holds a second NPI for the same organisation at this address (1598313595), folded into this listing.
Washington sits in the Washington-Arlington-Alexandria, DC-VA-MD-WV metropolitan area (District of Columbia), which has 18 imaging-centre records on the District of Columbia side in the September 2026 file, 1 of them with the MRI code, out of 18 across District of Columbia. The nearest alternatives in the registry are Metropolitan Radiology Associates Chartered (0.0 miles, Washington), Center Radiology PC (1.4 miles, Washington) and Medstar Medical Group Radiology, LLC (1.4 miles, Washington), with 2 more within 3.6 miles.
For a cash-pay benchmark, our District of Columbia freestanding-centre estimate is $800 to $2,100 for a typical single-region MRI. At hospitals our estimate is $2,800 to $7,800; we have not yet read this state's hospital price files. This centre's own prices are not in the registry: call (202) 854-7560 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.

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.
