What the Record Tells You

Northwestern Ri Imaging Center, LLC is an NPI registry record for an MRI centre and radiology clinic at 1526 Atwood Ave in Johnston, Rhode Island 02919. CMS issued NPI 1881647238 on 18 May 2006, and the organisation last updated its own entry on 31 March 2008. That was 18 years ago, so treat the phone number and suite as unverified until you have spoken to someone there.

The record carries 3 imaging taxonomy codes: Diagnostic radiology (physician specialty code carried by an organisation) (2085R0202X) and Magnetic Resonance Imaging (MRI) clinic/center (261QM1200X) and Radiology clinic/center (261QR0200X). 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.

Johnston sits in the Providence-Warwick, RI-MA metropolitan area (Providence County), which has 32 imaging-centre records on the Rhode Island side in the August 2026 file, 1 of them with the MRI code, out of 32 across Rhode Island. The nearest alternatives in the registry are Saint Joseph's Radiology Associates, INC. (2.9 miles, North Providence), Imaging Network of Rhode Island, INC. (3.4 miles, Providence) and Radiology Associates INC (4.7 miles, Providence), with 2 more within 5.3 miles.

For a cash-pay benchmark, our Rhode Island range is $700 to $1,800 at freestanding imaging centres and $2,400 to $6,400 at hospitals for a typical single-region MRI. This centre's own prices are not in the registry: call (401) 331-0900 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 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.
