What the Record Tells You
Affordable Imaging is an NPI registry record for an MRI centre at 4257 NW Loop 410, Suite B in San Antonio, Texas 78229. CMS issued NPI 1861896227 on 14 October 2014, and the organisation last updated its own entry on 14 October 2014. That was 11 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: 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.
San Antonio sits in the San Antonio-New Braunfels, TX metropolitan area (Bexar County), which has 75 imaging-centre records on the Texas side in the August 2026 file, 18 of them with the MRI code, out of 1,325 across Texas. The nearest alternatives in the registry are Medical Support Systems, INC. (0.2 miles, San Antonio), Ace Mobile Imaging Co. (0.2 miles, San Antonio) and Roy English Jr (0.8 miles, San Antonio), with 2 more within 1.0 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 San Antonio-New Braunfels run from $1,379.73 (CHRISTUS Santa Rosa Hospital - Westover Hills) to $9,342.89 (Methodist Hospital Westover Hills) for a brain MRI without contrast, from the hospitals' federal transparency files. This centre's own prices are not in the registry: call (210) 437-3230 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.
