What the Record Tells You
Vermont Open MRI is an NPI registry record for an MRI centre at 3000 Williston Rd in South Burlington, Vermont 05403. CMS issued NPI 1083904114 on 11 April 2011, and the organisation last updated its own entry on 19 March 2024. 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. CMS records it as a subpart of Minglewood Medical Imaging Management Company, so pricing may follow the parent's policies.
South Burlington sits in the Burlington-South Burlington, VT metropolitan area (Chittenden County), which has 13 imaging-centre records on the Vermont side in the October 2026 file, 1 of them with the MRI code, out of 25 across Vermont. The nearest alternatives in the registry are Vermont Diagnostic Imaging LLC (1.0 miles, Williston), Green Mountain Women's Imaging (1.6 miles, Williston) and Good Health Diagnostic Center, INC. (1.8 miles, South Burlington), with 2 more within 3.2 miles.
For a cash-pay benchmark, our Vermont freestanding-centre estimate is $600 to $1,500 for a typical single-region MRI. At Vermont hospitals the cash price is measured rather than estimated: $125 to $3,750 for a brain MRI, median $2,364, from 3 of the 4 Vermont hospitals whose own price files we have read, out of 6 in the state, files dated to April 2026. This centre's own prices are not in the registry: call (802) 863-1249 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 Vermont Open MRI (NPI 1083904114). 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 |
|---|---|---|---|
| Brain MRI without contrast CPT 70551 · 80 Medicare scans | $193 | $198 | $186 (633 centres) |
| Brain MRI without and with contrast CPT 70553 · 104 Medicare scans | $306 | $322 | $291 (588 centres) |
| Cervical spine MRI without contrast CPT 72141 · 99 Medicare scans | $178 | $200 | $165 (719 centres) |
| Lumbar spine MRI without contrast CPT 72148 · 271 Medicare scans | $188 | $202 | $180 (810 centres) |
| Shoulder or other arm joint MRI without contrast CPT 73221 · 138 Medicare scans | $199 | $212 | $190 (668 centres) |
| Knee or other leg joint MRI without contrast CPT 73721 · 213 Medicare scans | $194 | $216 | $187 (733 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
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.
