What the Record Tells You

Spring MRI LLC is an NPI registry record for an MRI centre at 20639 Kuykendahl Rd, Suite 250 in Spring, Texas 77379. CMS issued NPI 1477935187 on 18 June 2015, and the organisation last updated its own entry on 21 July 2026. That is recent, so the contact details are likely current.

The record carries one imaging taxonomy code: Magnetic Resonance Imaging (MRI) clinic/center (261QM1200X). 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.

Spring sits in the Houston-Pasadena-The Woodlands, TX metropolitan area (Harris County), which has 440 imaging-centre records on the Texas side in the October 2026 file, 76 of them with the MRI code, out of 1,458 across Texas. The nearest alternatives in the registry are Medical Imaging Partners PA (0.8 miles, Spring), Salient Radiology Associates, PLLC (2.6 miles, Spring) and Right Choice Advanced Imaging (2.7 miles, Spring), with 2 more within 3.7 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 (832) 610-3305 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 Medicare Paid This Centre (2024)

From CMS's public Medicare claims data for Spring MRI LLC (NPI 1477935187). Each row is a scan the centre billed to Medicare for at least 11 patients in 2024.

Scan	Medicare-approved amount	Centre's billed charge	National median approved
Lumbar spine MRI without contrast CPT 72148 · 11 Medicare scans	$186	$7,100	$180 (810 centres)

The Medicare-approved amount is the full amount Medicare accepts for the scan: its own payment plus the patient's share (usually the 20% coinsurance). The billed charge is the centre's own list price on those claims, which Medicare does not pay. Both are averages over the year, and the national column is the median approved amount across every centre that billed Medicare for that scan outside a hospital.

Neither figure is a self-pay quote. If you are paying cash, ask the centre for its self-pay rate for your CPT code and whether the radiologist's report is included.

Source: Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services, Medicare Physician & Other Practitioners - by Provider and Service, 2024 data, read 15 October 2026. CMS does not publish a centre and scan with fewer than 11 Medicare patients, so a scan missing here may still be offered.

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

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.
