Imaging Centers in Alaska: 42 MRI and Radiology Centre Records

The September 2026 NPI file lists 42 imaging organisations in Alaska: 14 registered under the MRI or radiology clinic codes (1, or 2%, with the MRI-specific code) and 28 diagnostic-radiology organisations classified by name. Anchorage is the largest market with 18 records, followed by Fairbanks-College (6) and Juneau (3). 15 records sit outside the metro areas listed below or alone in a small area; they are listed on this page.

Price context: a single-region MRI in Alaska runs $800 to $2,200 cash at a freestanding centre, which is our own estimate. At hospitals it is measured, not estimated: a brain MRI runs $1,541 to $4,177 cash, median $2,998 against a median gross charge of $4,786, from 3 of the 7 Alaska hospitals whose own price files we have read, out of 8 in the state, files dated to August 2026. A further 3 hospitals publish their chargemaster unchanged as a “cash price”, up to $5,282, and are not in that range. Limited competition outside Anchorage drives prices up.

Cash-Price Context for Alaska

Use these ranges as the benchmark when you call a listed centre for a self-pay quote. The registry holds no prices.

Cash price for a brain MRI in Alaska: 3 hospitals measured

Freestanding imaging centre, estimated

$800 to $2,200
Our own estimate. No imaging operator publishes a per-state cash price.

Hospital outpatient, measured

$1,541 to $4,177
Median $2,998 cash against a median gross charge of $4,786, from 3 of the 7 Alaska hospitals whose own price files we have read, out of 8 in the state, files dated to August 2026.

Limited competition outside Anchorage drives prices up. 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 $5,282; those are kept out of the band above and counted here instead. Hospitals whose file we could not read are named, not filled in (methodology).

Multi-Site Operators in Alaska

Registered organisation names appearing three or more times in Alaska: multi-site operators and chains, whose cash prices are usually set per company rather than per site.
