What the Record Tells You
Smart Choice MRI, LLC is an NPI registry record for an MRI centre at 1704 E 66TH St in Minneapolis, Minnesota 55423. CMS issued NPI 1215480942 on 29 July 2016, and the organisation last updated its own entry on 12 July 2018. That was 8 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.
Minneapolis sits in the Minneapolis-St. Paul-Bloomington, MN-WI metropolitan area (Hennepin County), which has 64 imaging-centre records on the Minnesota side in the August 2026 file, 27 of them with the MRI code, out of 81 across Minnesota. The nearest alternatives in the registry are Northstar Imaging LLC (3.0 miles, Bloomington), US Health Imaging LLC (3.0 miles, Bloomington) and Mobile Diagnostic Imaging, INC (3.6 miles, Edina), with 2 more within 3.9 miles.
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 (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.

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.
