What the Record Tells You
Gulf Coast MRI LLC is an NPI registry record for an MRI centre at 116 S Pinellas Ave in Tarpon Springs, Florida 34689. CMS issued NPI 1598118176 on 19 July 2016, and the organisation last updated its own entry on 19 July 2016. That was 10 years ago, so treat the phone number and suite as unverified until you have spoken to someone there.
The record carries one imaging taxonomy code: Magnetic Resonance Imaging (MRI) clinic/center (261QM1200X). 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.
Tarpon Springs sits in the Tampa-St. Petersburg-Clearwater, FL metropolitan area (Pinellas County), which has 312 imaging-centre records on the Florida side in the August 2026 file, 46 of them with the MRI code, out of 1,972 across Florida. The nearest alternatives in the registry are Advantage Open MRI (0.7 miles, Tarpon Springs), Imaging & Radiology Specialists, LLP (0.9 miles, Tarpon Springs) and Global Imaging Specialists, LLC (1.0 miles, Tarpon Springs), with 2 more within 3.1 miles.
For a cash-pay benchmark, our Florida range is $500 to $1,500 at freestanding imaging centres and $1,800 to $5,400 at hospitals for a typical single-region MRI.

This centre's own prices are not in the registry: call (727) 934-0513 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
- 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.
