What the Record Tells You

Discovery Imaging Center is an NPI registry record for a radiology clinic/centre at 8522 W Capitol Dr in Milwaukee, Wisconsin 53222. CMS issued NPI 1407520380 on 4 August 2021, and the organisation last updated its own entry on 4 August 2021. That was 5 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: Radiology clinic/center (261QR0200X). It registered as a radiology clinic without the MRI-specific code, so ask which modalities it operates before assuming an MRI is available. One other imaging record shares this street address: Pediatric Diagnostic Imaging, S.C..

Milwaukee sits in the Milwaukee-Waukesha, WI metropolitan area (Milwaukee County), which has 40 imaging-centre records on the Wisconsin side in the August 2026 file, 7 of them with the MRI code, out of 93 across Wisconsin. The nearest alternatives in the registry are Pediatric Diagnostic Imaging, S.C. (0.0 miles, Milwaukee), McMc Radiology Services, LLC (2.0 miles, Milwaukee) and Affiliated Medical Imaging (2.0 miles, Milwaukee), with 2 more within 2.4 miles.

For a cash-pay benchmark, our Wisconsin range is $500 to $1,350 at freestanding imaging centres and $1,800 to $5,200 at hospitals for a typical single-region MRI. This centre's own prices are not in the registry: call (414) 736-9943 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.

Full list: cheap MRI, good MRI checklist.
