What the Record Tells You
Lakes Imaging LLC is an NPI registry record for a radiology clinic/centre at 2019 S 6TH St in Brainerd, Minnesota 56401. CMS issued NPI 1437182839 on 9 July 2006, and the organisation last updated its own entry on 22 August 2020. That was 5 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: 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. The same business holds a sibling registration at this address under the name Diagnostic Imaging Specialists, P.A. (NPI 1447271192); they are covered by this page rather than given their own.
Brainerd sits in the Brainerd, MN micropolitan area (Crow Wing County), which has 3 imaging-centre records on the Minnesota side in the August 2026 file, 0 of them with the MRI code, out of 81 across Minnesota. The nearest alternatives in the registry are Minnesota Radiology Institute (16 miles, Crosby) and Mobile Imaging Services, LLC (48 miles, Sartell).
For a cash-pay benchmark, our Minnesota range is $550 to $1,500 at freestanding imaging centres and $2,000 to $5,800 at hospitals for a typical single-region MRI. This centre's own prices are not in the registry: call (218) 822-4242 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
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.

NPPES is an identifier registry, not a licence register: an NPI does not validate licensure, accreditation or that a scanner is on site. Names, addresses and phones are as self-reported to CMS and many records have not been updated for years; confirm before you travel. Coordinates: US Census Bureau geocoder, ZIP-code centroid where the address did not match (flagged). Metro areas: 2023 Census core-based statistical areas by county. Price ranges: our methodology; hospital cash prices: each hospital's federal transparency file (45 CFR 180), where parsed. No centre pays to be listed and none is endorsed.
