Imaging Centers in Birmingham, AL: 50 Registry Records

Birmingham is a metropolitan area within the Birmingham-Cullman-Talladega, AL combined area. The September 2026 NPI file lists 50 imaging organisations on the Alabama side (4 counties: Chilton County, Jefferson County, Shelby County and Walker County): 31 under the MRI or radiology clinic codes (9 with the MRI-specific code) and 19 diagnostic-radiology organisations classified by name. They spread across 12 cities, led by Birmingham (22), Homewood (6), Hoover (4) and Alabaster (3). 17 records were updated in 2024 or later and 18 have not been touched since before 2020.

Price context: a single-region MRI in Alabama typically runs $450 to $1,100 cash at a freestanding centre and $1,400 to $4,200 at a hospital. The registry holds no prices; call with the CPT code and ask for the self-pay rate.

Hospital Cash Prices in Birmingham

Federal price-transparency files (45 CFR 180) oblige every hospital to publish its discounted cash price per CPT code. Where we have parsed the files for this metro, the figures are below; they are the benchmark the freestanding centres beat.

Hospital cash prices for Birmingham: not broken out by metro yet. We publish hospital MRI cash prices only from a hospital's own federal transparency file, and this metro has not been broken out separately. Statewide we have read them: a brain MRI runs $85 to $2,153 cash, median $1,381, from 14 of the 19 Alabama hospitals whose own price files we have read, out of 73 in the state, files dated to September 2026. The freestanding-centre range below is still our own estimate.

Alabama Cash-Price Benchmark

Cash price for a brain MRI in Alabama: 14 hospitals measured

Freestanding imaging centre, estimated

$450 to $1,100
Our own estimate. No imaging operator publishes a per-state cash price.

Hospital outpatient, measured

$85 to $2,153
Median $1,381 cash against a median gross charge of $3,470, from 14 of the 19 Alabama hospitals whose own price files we have read, out of 73 in the state, files dated to September 2026.

Birmingham and Huntsville have the most independent imaging centres. 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 2 hospitals publish a “cash price” that is its chargemaster restated rather than a discount, reaching $12,398; 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 $280 to $280, 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).
