What the Record Tells You

Medarva Imaging is an NPI registry record for a radiology clinic/centre at 1630 Wilkes Ridge Pkwy Ste 100 in Richmond, Virginia 23233. CMS issued NPI 1447538558 on 25 July 2011, and the organisation last updated its own entry on 7 August 2025. That is recent, so the contact details are likely current.

The record carries 2 imaging taxonomy codes: Radiology clinic/center (261QR0200X) and Diagnostic radiology (physician specialty code carried by an organisation) (2085R0202X). It registered as a radiology clinic without the MRI-specific code, so ask which modalities it operates before assuming an MRI is available. CMS records it as a subpart of Richmond Eye and Ear Health Alliance, so pricing may follow the parent's policies.

Richmond sits in the Richmond, VA metropolitan area (Henrico County), which has 37 imaging-centre records on the Virginia side in the October 2026 file, 5 of them with the MRI code, out of 226 across Virginia. The nearest alternatives in the registry are Independence Park Imaging (0.0 miles, Richmond), Bon Secours Short Pump - Imaging (1.4 miles, Richmond) and The Ellen Shaw de Paredes Institute for Women's Imaging (3.2 miles, Glen Allen), with 2 more within 4.5 miles.

For a cash-pay benchmark, our Virginia freestanding-centre estimate is $550 to $1,500 for a typical single-region MRI. At Virginia hospitals the cash price is measured rather than estimated: $605 to $5,511 for a brain MRI, median $1,760, from 45 of the 52 Virginia hospitals whose own price files we have read, out of 72 in the state, files dated to July 2026. This centre's own prices are not in the registry: call (804) 775-4500 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 Medarva Imaging (NPI 1447538558). 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 and with contrast CPT 70553 · 20 Medicare scans	$207	$1,935	$291 (588 centres)
Chest X-ray, 2 views CPT 71046 · 84 Medicare scans	$20	$456	$31 (743 centres)
Cervical spine MRI without contrast CPT 72141 · 16 Medicare scans	$118	$1,226	$165 (719 centres)
Lumbar spine MRI without contrast CPT 72148 · 39 Medicare scans	$116	$1,226	$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 Virginia: 45 hospitals measured

Freestanding imaging centre, estimated

$550 to $1,500

Our own estimate. No imaging operator publishes a per-state cash price.

Hospital outpatient, measured

$605 to $5,511

Median $1,760 cash against a median gross charge of $3,450, from 45 of the 52 Virginia hospitals whose own price files we have read, out of 72 in the state, files dated to July 2026.

Northern VA priced like DC metro; Richmond and Norfolk more competitive. 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 3 hospitals publish a “cash price” that is its chargemaster restated rather than a discount, reaching $11,774; those are kept out of the band above and counted here instead. 1 more hospital lists this code at prices more than three times apart in the same file, from $2,674 to $2,674, 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).

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.
