What the Record Tells You

1ST Diagnostics LLC is an NPI registry record for an MRI centre at 5908 Preston Hwy in Louisville, Kentucky 40219. CMS issued NPI 1558129312 on 7 March 2024, and the organisation last updated its own entry on 8 April 2024. That was 2 years ago; the details are probably still current, but confirm the address when you book.

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.

Louisville sits in the Louisville/Jefferson County, KY-IN metropolitan area (Jefferson County), which has 33 imaging-centre records on the Kentucky side in the August 2026 file, 7 of them with the MRI code, out of 152 across Kentucky. The nearest alternatives in the registry are Premier Imaging Solutions LLC (0.9 miles, Louisville), Kentuckiana Foot & Ankle PLLC (2.1 miles, Louisville) and Diagnostic X-Ray Physicians, PSC (3.6 miles, Louisville), with 2 more within 5.1 miles.

For a cash-pay benchmark, our Kentucky range is $470 to $1,200 at freestanding imaging centres and $1,600 to $4,600 at hospitals for a typical single-region MRI. This centre's own prices are not in the registry: call (502) 381-1584 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.
