What the Record Tells You

Memorial Hermann Imaging Centers-East Houston Center, the trading name of Memorial Hermann Health System, is an NPI registry record for a radiology clinic/centre at 13525 East Fwy in Houston, Texas 77015. CMS issued NPI 1154595155 on 22 April 2008, and the organisation last updated its own entry on 27 June 2014. That was 12 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: 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. It also holds one other taxonomy code (293D00000X).

Houston sits in the Houston-Pasadena-The Woodlands, TX metropolitan area (Harris County), which has 438 imaging-centre records on the Texas side in the September 2026 file, 75 of them with the MRI code, out of 1,450 across Texas. The nearest alternatives in the registry are Normandy MRI (0.9 miles, Houston), Houston MRI & Diagnostic Imaging (2.7 miles, Houston) and Provision Imaging of East Houston (2.9 miles, Houston), with 2 more within 7.3 miles.

For a cash-pay benchmark, our Texas freestanding-centre estimate is $500 to $1,400 for a typical single-region MRI. At Texas hospitals the cash price is measured rather than estimated: $236 to $10,390 for a brain MRI, median $2,190, from 125 of the 194 Texas hospitals whose own price files we have read, out of 285 in the state, files dated to September 2026. Published hospital cash prices in Houston-Pasadena-The Woodlands run from $230.91 (Harris Health Ben Taub Hospital) to $20,243.66 (HCA Houston Healthcare Northwest) for a brain MRI without contrast, from the hospitals' federal transparency files. This centre's own prices are not in the registry: call (713) 363-2400 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

Cash price for a brain MRI in Texas: 125 hospitals measured

Freestanding imaging centre, estimated

$500 to $1,400
Our own estimate. No imaging operator publishes a per-state cash price.

Hospital outpatient, measured

$236 to $10,390
Median $2,190 cash against a median gross charge of $4,174, from 125 of the 194 Texas hospitals whose own price files we have read, out of 285 in the state, files dated to September 2026.

Houston, Dallas, Austin, San Antonio all competitive; Houston Methodist and MD Anderson at the top. 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 42 hospitals publish a “cash price” that is its chargemaster restated rather than a discount, reaching $23,252; those are kept out of the band above and counted here instead. 4 more hospitals list this code at prices more than three times apart in the same file, from $124 to $362, 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).

Parsed hospital cash prices for Houston-Pasadena-The Woodlands (brain MRI, CPT 70551): Harris Health Ben Taub Hospital $230.91; Harris Health Lyndon B. Johnson Hospital $230.91; Memorial Hermann Memorial City Medical Center $1,312.32 and 19 more. Full table on the Houston-Pasadena-The Woodlands metro page.

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.
