What the Record Tells You

Boulder MRI, LLC is an NPI registry record for an MRI centre at 1000 W South Boulder Rd, Ste: 105 in Lafayette, Colorado 80026. CMS issued NPI 1427334671 on 1 November 2011, and the organisation last updated its own entry on 11 January 2012. That was 14 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: Magnetic Resonance Imaging (MRI) clinic/center (261QM1200X). The MRI-specific code means the organisation registered itself as a magnetic resonance imaging centre, the strongest signal the registry gives that a scanner is on site. The same business holds a sibling registration at this address under the name Community Medical Center Imaging (NPI 1487202552); they are covered by this page rather than given their own.

Lafayette sits in the Boulder, CO metropolitan area (Boulder County), which has 14 imaging-centre records on the Colorado side in the September 2026 file, 3 of them with the MRI code, out of 223 across Colorado. The nearest alternatives in the registry are Flatirons Imaging. LLC (2.1 miles, Louisville), US Radiology Partners of Texas INC (2.6 miles, Lafayette) and Medical Imaging Center of Broomfield (4.1 miles, Broomfield), with 1 more within 4.6 miles.

For a cash-pay benchmark, our Colorado freestanding-centre estimate is $550 to $1,500 for a typical single-region MRI. At Colorado hospitals the cash price is measured rather than estimated: $438 to $2,927 for a brain MRI, median $2,710, from 15 of the 22 Colorado hospitals whose own price files we have read, out of 51 in the state, files dated to September 2026. This centre's own prices are not in the registry: call (303) 604-5031 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 Colorado: 15 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

$438 to $2,927

Median $2,710 cash against a median gross charge of $3,427, from 15 of the 22 Colorado hospitals whose own price files we have read, out of 51 in the state, files dated to September 2026.

Denver-Boulder competitive; mountain towns priced higher. 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 6 hospitals publish a “cash price” that is its chargemaster restated rather than a discount, reaching $3,454; 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 $1,250 to $1,250, 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.
