What the Record Tells You

Diagnostic and Imaging Center, the trading name of Shore Health System INC, is an NPI registry record for a radiology clinic/centre at 10 Martin CT Ste 100 in Easton, Maryland 21601. CMS issued NPI 1699286401 on 19 October 2017, and the organisation last updated its own entry on 27 November 2023. 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: 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. CMS records it as a subpart of Shore Health System INC, so pricing may follow the parent's policies. One other imaging record shares this street address: University of Maryland Diagnostic Imaging Specialists P A.

Easton sits in the Easton, MD micropolitan area (Talbot County), which has 9 imaging-centre records on the Maryland side in the October 2026 file, 0 of them with the MRI code, out of 348 across Maryland. The nearest alternatives in the registry are University of Maryland Diagnostic Imaging Specialists P A (0.0 miles, Easton), Chesapeake Medical Imaging (0.0 miles, Easton) and Um Shore Regional Health MRI Services at Toc (0.0 miles, Easton), with 2 more within 0.2 miles.

For a cash-pay benchmark, our Maryland freestanding-centre estimate is $700 to $1,900 for a typical single-region MRI. At Maryland hospitals the cash price is measured rather than estimated: $247 to $1,832 for a brain MRI, median $513, from 16 of the 23 Maryland hospitals whose own price files we have read, out of 43 in the state, files dated to June 2026. This centre's own prices are not in the registry: call (410) 820-7778 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 Medicare Paid This Centre (2024)

From CMS's public Medicare claims data for Diagnostic and Imaging Center (NPI 1699286401). Each row is a scan the centre billed to Medicare for at least 11 patients in 2024.

The Medicare-approved amount is the full amount Medicare accepts for the scan: its own payment plus the patient's share (usually the 20% coinsurance). The billed charge is the centre's own list price on those claims, which Medicare does not pay. Both are averages over the year, and the national column is the median approved amount across every centre that billed Medicare for that scan outside a hospital.

Neither figure is a self-pay quote. If you are paying cash, ask the centre for its self-pay rate for your CPT code and whether the radiologist's report is included.

Source: Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services, Medicare Physician & Other Practitioners - by Provider and Service, 2024 data, read 15 October 2026. CMS does not publish a centre and scan with fewer than 11 Medicare patients, so a scan missing here may still be offered.

Cash-Price Benchmark

Cash price for a brain MRI in Maryland: 16 hospitals measured

Freestanding imaging centre, estimated

$700 to $1,900
Our own estimate. No imaging operator publishes a per-state cash price.

Hospital outpatient, measured

$247 to $1,832
Median $513 cash against a median gross charge of $556, from 16 of the 23 Maryland hospitals whose own price files we have read, out of 43 in the state, files dated to June 2026.

Maryland uses all-payer hospital rate setting; cash-pay still high at academic centres. 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 1 hospital publishes a “cash price” that is its chargemaster restated rather than a discount, reaching $2,126; those are kept out of the band above and counted here instead. Hospitals whose file we could not read are named, not filled in (methodology).

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.
