What the Record Tells You

Platte Valley Medical Imaging LLC is an NPI registry record for a radiology clinic/centre at 1606 Prairie Center Pkwy Ste 130 in Brighton, Colorado 80601. CMS issued NPI 1609117225 on 6 March 2013, and the organisation last updated its own entry on 6 March 2013. That was 13 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.

Brighton sits in the Denver-Aurora-Centennial, CO metropolitan area (Adams County), which has 101 imaging-centre records on the Colorado side in the September 2026 file, 10 of them with the MRI code, out of 223 across Colorado. The nearest alternatives in the registry are Spectrum Medical Imaging, LLC (0.0 miles, Brighton), North Denver Integrated Imaging LLC (9.7 miles, Thornton) and Simonmed Imaging (9.7 miles, Thornton), with 2 more within 10 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) 498-3618 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

  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.
