What the Record Tells You
Queens Radiology Reading Services PC is an NPI registry record for a radiology clinic/centre at 16020 79TH St, Howard Beach in Jamaica, New York 11414. CMS issued NPI 1518322171 on 28 December 2015, and the organisation last updated its own entry on 16 November 2021. That was 4 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.
Jamaica sits in the New York-Newark-Jersey City, NY-NJ metropolitan area (Queens County), which has 581 imaging-centre records on the New York side in the August 2026 file, 36 of them with the MRI code, out of 778 across New York. The nearest alternatives in the registry are Cross Bay Open Imaging Mds PC (0.8 miles, Howard Beach), Ap Diagnostic Medical, P.C. (1.9 miles, Ozone Park) and Aris Diagnostic Medical, PLLC (1.9 miles, Ozone Park), with 2 more within 2.1 miles.
For a cash-pay benchmark, our New York range is $800 to $2,200 at freestanding imaging centres and $2,800 to $7,800 at hospitals for a typical single-region MRI. This centre's own prices are not in the registry: call (718) 344-2855 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.
Full list: cheap MRI, good MRI checklist.
