What the Record Tells You

Austin Radiological Association is an NPI registry record for a radiology clinic/centre at 1348 Highway 123 in San Marcos, Texas 78666. CMS issued NPI 1710964655 on 30 December 2005, and the organisation last updated its own entry on 10 July 2024. That was 2 years ago; the details are probably still current, but confirm the address when you book.

The record carries 2 imaging taxonomy codes: Radiology clinic/center (261QR0200X) and Mobile radiology clinic/center (261QR0208X). It registered as a radiology clinic without the MRI-specific code, so ask which modalities it operates before assuming an MRI is available.

San Marcos sits in the Austin-Round Rock-San Marcos, TX metropolitan area (Hays County), which has 78 imaging-centre records on the Texas side in the August 2026 file, 7 of them with the MRI code, out of 1,325 across Texas. The nearest alternatives in the registry are San Marcos Medical Imaging PLLC (0.7 miles, San Marcos), Radiology Associates of San Marcos (0.7 miles, San Marcos) and San Marcos MRI, LP (0.7 miles, San Marcos), with 2 more within 11 miles.

For a cash-pay benchmark, our Texas range is $500 to $1,400 at freestanding imaging centres and $1,700 to $5,100 at hospitals for a typical single-region MRI. Published hospital cash prices in Austin-Round Rock-San Marcos run from $2,260.29 (Baylor Scott & White Medical Center - Marble Falls) to $2,556.77 (Baylor Scott & White Medical Center - Lakeway) for a brain MRI without contrast, from the hospitals' federal transparency files. This centre's own prices are not in the registry: call (512) 392-1831 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.
