What the Record Tells You
Prudent Diagnostics, INC is an NPI registry record for a radiology clinic/centre at 12638 Bissonnet St Ste B in Houston, Texas 77099. CMS issued NPI 1023349123 on 29 January 2010, and the organisation last updated its own entry on 29 January 2010. That was 16 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.
Houston sits in the Houston-Pasadena-The Woodlands, TX metropolitan area (Harris County), which has 396 imaging-centre records on the Texas side in the August 2026 file, 75 of them with the MRI code, out of 1,325 across Texas. The nearest alternatives in the registry are Clear Imaging and Diagnostics LLC (0.8 miles, Houston), Baseline Scan INC (1.1 miles, Houston) and Pioneer Imaging, LLC (2.4 miles, Houston), with 2 more within 2.9 miles.

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 (832) 667-8132 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
- 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.
