What the Record Tells You

Metro Imaging Buford is an NPI registry record for a radiology clinic/centre at 3425 Buford Dr, Suite 100 in Buford, Georgia 30519. CMS issued NPI 1073977286 on 13 April 2016, and the organisation last updated its own entry on 13 April 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: 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. One other imaging record shares this street address: North American Imaging of Buford, LLC.

Buford sits in the Atlanta-Sandy Springs-Roswell, GA metropolitan area (Gwinnett County), which has 212 imaging-centre records on the Georgia side in the August 2026 file, 16 of them with the MRI code, out of 365 across Georgia. The nearest alternatives in the registry are North American Imaging of Buford, LLC (0.0 miles, Buford), Diagnostic Imaging Solutions (2.7 miles, Buford) and Bright Horizon Imaging LLC (4.6 miles, Dacula), with 2 more within 6.2 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) 433-4123 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

Typical cash price for a single-region MRI in Georgia

Freestanding imaging centre

$480 to $1,300

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.
