What the Record Tells You

Diagnostic Clinic of Athens, LLC is an NPI registry record for an MRI centre and radiology clinic at 1063 Baxter St in Athens, Georgia 30606. CMS issued NPI 1679523708 on 11 May 2006, and the organisation last updated its own entry on 18 February 2021. 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. The same business holds a sibling registration at this address under the name American Health Imaging of Georgia, LLC (NPI 1255091898); they are covered by this page rather than given their own.

Athens sits in the Athens-Clarke County, GA metropolitan area (Clarke County), which has 11 imaging-centre records on the Georgia side in the August 2026 file, 1 of them with the MRI code, out of 365 across Georgia. The nearest alternatives in the registry are Radiology Associates of North Georgia (1.1 miles, Athens), Northwest Diagnostic Imaging, INC (1.1 miles, Athens) and Open MRI of Georgia, INC (1.1 miles, Athens), with 1 more within 1.1 miles.

For a cash-pay benchmark, our Georgia range is $480 to $1,300 at freestanding imaging centres and $1,600 to $4,800 at hospitals for a typical single-region MRI. This centre's own prices are not in the registry: call (706) 316-3662 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.

Atlanta has dozens of independent centres; rural Georgia far less competitive. Ranges are our sourced estimates for the state (methodology), not quotes from any listed centre.

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.
