What the Record Tells You

River Bend Imaging LLC is an NPI registry record for an MRI centre at 490 Belle Terre Blvd in La Place, Louisiana 70068. CMS issued NPI 1609265792 on 13 January 2015, and the organisation last updated its own entry on 25 September 2024. That is recent, so the contact details are likely current.

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.

La Place sits in the New Orleans-Metairie, LA metropolitan area (St. John the Baptist Parish), which has 27 imaging-centre records on the Louisiana side in the August 2026 file, 9 of them with the MRI code, out of 172 across Louisiana. The nearest alternatives in the registry are Sound Diagnostics INC. (16 miles, Kenner), La Imaging Solutions, LLC (16 miles, Kenner) and PET Fusion Center, LLC (20 miles, Metairie), with 2 more within 20 miles.

For a cash-pay benchmark, our Louisiana range is $500 to $1,350 at freestanding imaging centres and $1,800 to $5,100 at hospitals for a typical single-region MRI. This centre's own prices are not in the registry: call (504) 915-4741 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.
