What the Record Tells You

Daystar Open MRI LLC is an NPI registry record for an MRI centre at 1801 S 5TH St Ste 103 in McAllen, Texas 78503. CMS issued NPI 1992138101 on 12 August 2013, and the organisation last updated its own entry on 17 October 2023. That was 2 years ago; the details are probably still current, but confirm the address when you book.

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. One other imaging record shares this street address: McAllen Regional Imaging LLC.

McAllen sits in the McAllen-Edinburg-Mission, TX metropolitan area (Hidalgo County), which has 49 imaging-centre records on the Texas side in the August 2026 file, 16 of them with the MRI code, out of 1,325 across Texas. The nearest alternatives in the registry are McAllen Regional Imaging LLC (0.0 miles, McAllen), South Texas Imaging Center K PA (0.1 miles, McAllen) and Rfc Radiology Associates LLC (0.1 miles, McAllen), with 2 more within 0.3 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. This centre's own prices are not in the registry: call (956) 627-6399 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.
