What the Record Tells You

Vantage Open MRI LLC is an NPI registry record for an MRI centre at 3400 W Hefner Rd in Oklahoma City, Oklahoma 73120. CMS issued NPI 1942239702 on 2 July 2006, and the organisation last updated its own entry on 20 April 2012. That was 14 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. The same business holds a sibling registration at this address under the name Hefner PET Associates LLC (NPI 1245403740); they are covered by this page rather than given their own.

Oklahoma City sits in the Oklahoma City, OK metropolitan area (Oklahoma County), which has 70 imaging-centre records on the Oklahoma side in the October 2026 file, 9 of them with the MRI code, out of 177 across Oklahoma. The nearest alternatives in the registry are Hefner Diagnostic Imaging Center (0.0 miles, Oklahoma City), Hefner Diagnostic Imaging Center (0.0 miles, Oklahoma City) and Lakeponte Imaging Center and Open MRI (0.4 miles, Oklahoma City), with 1 more within 0.4 miles.

For a cash-pay benchmark, our Oklahoma freestanding-centre estimate is $450 to $1,200 for a typical single-region MRI. At Oklahoma hospitals the cash price is measured rather than estimated: $493 to $8,887 for a brain MRI, median $1,361, from 16 of the 27 Oklahoma hospitals whose own price files we have read, out of 76 in the state, files dated to August 2026. This centre's own prices are not in the registry: call (405) 418-0900 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 Vantage Open MRI LLC (NPI 1942239702). Each row is a scan the centre billed to Medicare for at least 11 patients in 2024.

Scan	Medicare-approved amount	Centre's billed charge	National median approved
Brain MRI without contrast CPT 70551 · 73 Medicare scans	$115	$2,140	$186 (633 centres)
Brain MRI without and with contrast CPT 70553 · 71 Medicare scans	$193	$4,226	$291 (588 centres)
Cervical spine MRI without contrast CPT 72141 · 79 Medicare scans	$97	$2,163	$165 (719 centres)
Lumbar spine MRI without contrast CPT 72148 · 200 Medicare scans	$107	$2,324	$180 (810 centres)
Shoulder or other arm joint MRI without contrast CPT 73221 · 66 Medicare scans	$120	$2,084	$190 (668 centres)
Knee or other leg joint MRI without contrast CPT 73721 · 68 Medicare scans	$119	$2,084	$187 (733 centres)

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 Oklahoma: 16 hospitals measured

Freestanding imaging centre, estimated

$450 to $1,200

Our own estimate. No imaging operator publishes a per-state cash price.

Hospital outpatient, measured

$493 to $8,887

Median $1,361 cash against a median gross charge of $1,930, from 16 of the 27 Oklahoma hospitals whose own price files we have read, out of 76 in the state, files dated to August 2026.

Oklahoma City Surgery Center pioneered transparent pricing. 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 2 hospitals publish a “cash price” that is its chargemaster restated rather than a discount, reaching $1,670; those are kept out of the band above and counted here instead. 2 more hospitals list this code at prices more than three times apart in the same file, from $54 to $469, so which row is the scan cannot be told from the file; they are excluded from the band and counted here. Hospitals whose file we could not read are named, not filled in (methodology).

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.
