What the Record Tells You

Effingham Imaging Center, the trading name of Hospital Authority of Effingham County, is an NPI registry record for an MRI centre at 110 Goshen Road in Rincon, Georgia 31326. CMS issued NPI 1770732968 on 12 September 2008, and the organisation last updated its own entry on 12 September 2008. That was 18 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.

Rincon sits in the Savannah, GA metropolitan area (Effingham County), which has 20 imaging-centre records on the Georgia side in the September 2026 file, 3 of them with the MRI code, out of 380 across Georgia. The nearest alternatives in the registry are Atlantic Radiology Associates, LLC (8.0 miles, Pooler), Coastal Empire Imaging, LLC (9.1 miles, Hardeeville) and Outpatient Imaging Services LLC (11 miles, Pooler), with 2 more within 17 miles.

For a cash-pay benchmark, our Georgia freestanding-centre estimate is $480 to $1,300 for a typical single-region MRI. At Georgia hospitals the cash price is measured rather than estimated: $238 to $2,428 for a brain MRI, median $1,212, from 19 of the 47 Georgia hospitals whose own price files we have read, out of 96 in the state, files dated to August 2026. This centre's own prices are not in the registry: call (912) 826-1400 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

Cash price for a brain MRI in Georgia: 19 hospitals measured

Freestanding imaging centre, estimated

$480 to $1,300

Our own estimate. No imaging operator publishes a per-state cash price.

Hospital outpatient, measured

$238 to $2,428

Median $1,212 cash against a median gross charge of $2,789, from 19 of the 47 Georgia hospitals whose own price files we have read, out of 96 in the state, files dated to August 2026.

Atlanta has dozens of independent centres; rural Georgia far less competitive. The hospital figures are CPT 70551, brain MRI without contrast, taken from each hospital's own federal transparency file and attributed to the date that file carries. A further 15 hospitals publish a “cash price” that is its chargemaster restated rather than a discount, reaching $11,676; those are kept out of the band above and counted here instead. 9 more hospitals list this code at prices more than three times apart in the same file, from $37 to $1,826, so which row is the scan cannot be told from the file; they are excluded from the band and counted here. Hospitals whose file we could not read are named, not filled in (methodology).

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.
