What the Record Tells You

Brookwood Diagnostic Imaging Center, LLC is an NPI registry record for a radiology clinic/centre at 513 Brookwood Blvd, Suite 100 in Birmingham, Alabama 35209. CMS issued NPI 1538520721 on 15 March 2016, and the organisation last updated its own entry on 28 August 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: 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. The same business holds a sibling registration at this address under the name Brookwood Center for Development (NPI 1023137544); they are covered by this page rather than given their own. CMS also holds a second NPI for the same organisation at this address (1841215621), folded into this listing.

Birmingham sits in the Birmingham, AL metropolitan area (Jefferson County), which has 50 imaging-centre records on the Alabama side in the September 2026 file, 9 of them with the MRI code, out of 172 across Alabama. The nearest alternatives in the registry are Imagesouth 3T Imaging (0.0 miles, Homewood), American Health Imaging 3T of Brookwood (0.0 miles, Birmingham) and Brookwood Womens Diagnostic Center, LLC (0.4 miles, Birmingham), with 1 more within 0.4 miles.

For a cash-pay benchmark, our Alabama freestanding-centre estimate is $450 to $1,100 for a typical single-region MRI. At Alabama hospitals the cash price is measured rather than estimated: $85 to $2,153 for a brain MRI, 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. This centre's own prices are not in the registry: call (469) 893-2000 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.

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).

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.
