What the Record Tells You

Texas Imaging Specialist is an NPI registry record for an MRI centre at 8118A W Gate Blvd in Austin, Texas 78745. CMS issued NPI 1730852484 on 28 July 2021, and the organisation last updated its own entry on 28 July 2021. That was 5 years ago, so treat the phone number and suite as unverified until you have spoken to someone there.

The record carries 4 imaging taxonomy codes: Diagnostic radiology (physician specialty code carried by an organisation) (2085R0202X) and Magnetic Resonance Imaging (MRI) clinic/center (261QM1200X) and Mobile mammography clinic/center (261QR0207X) and Mobile radiology clinic/center (261QR0208X). 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. It also holds 6 other taxonomy codes (2085B0100X, 247ZC0005X, 261Q00000X, 261QH0100X, 261QI0500X, 261QM1300X).

Austin sits in the Austin-Round Rock-San Marcos, TX metropolitan area (Travis 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 MRI Centers of Texas LLC South Austin Series (1.0 miles, Austin), Ara/St. David's Imaging, LP (1.1 miles, Austin) and Southwest Diagnostic Centers LTD (2.1 miles, Austin), with 2 more within 3.6 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 (737) 932-1899 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.
