What the Record Tells You

Smart Choice MRI, LLC is an NPI registry record for an MRI centre at 2830 S Highland Ave Unit 9 in Lombard, Illinois 60148. CMS issued NPI 1104376987 on 5 October 2016, and the organisation last updated its own entry on 5 October 2016. That was 9 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.

Lombard sits in the Chicago-Naperville-Elgin, IL-IN metropolitan area (DuPage County), which has 367 imaging-centre records on the Illinois side in the August 2026 file, 83 of them with the MRI code, out of 459 across Illinois. The nearest alternatives in the registry are Advanced Medical Imaging Center LLC (1.4 miles, Oakbrook Terrace), Precisionimagingusa (1.9 miles, Downers Grove) and Invisible Sun LLC (2.5 miles, Oak Brook), with 2 more within 3.0 miles.

For a cash-pay benchmark, our Illinois range is $550 to $1,600 at freestanding imaging centres and $2,000 to $6,200 at hospitals for a typical single-region MRI. This centre's own prices are not in the registry: call (844) 633-3674 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

  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.
