What the Record Tells You

Kaiser Hilo Clinic Radiology, the trading name of Kaiser Foundation Health Plan INC, is an NPI registry record for a radiology clinic/centre at 1292 Waianuenue Ave in Hilo, Hawaii 96720. CMS issued NPI 1386767135 on 9 April 2007, and the organisation last updated its own entry on 13 March 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.

Hilo sits in the Hilo-Kailua, HI micropolitan area (Hawaii County), which has 5 imaging-centre records on the Hawaii side in the September 2026 file, 0 of them with the MRI code, out of 42 across Hawaii. The nearest alternatives in the registry are Hawaii Radiologic Associates, LTD. (1.4 miles, Hilo), Hi Frequency Imaging LLC (2.5 miles, Hilo) and Elevation Medical Imaging Hawaii LLC (46 miles, Waikoloa).

For a cash-pay benchmark, our Hawaii freestanding-centre estimate is $800 to $2,000 for a typical single-region MRI. At Hawaii hospitals the cash price is measured rather than estimated: $722 to $1,673 for a brain MRI, median $1,418, from 9 of the 9 Hawaii hospitals whose own price files we have read, out of 11 in the state, files dated to July 2026. This centre's own prices are not in the registry: call (808) 934-4000 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 Hawaii: 9 hospitals measured

Freestanding imaging centre, estimated

$800 to $2,000

Our own estimate. No imaging operator publishes a per-state cash price.

Hospital outpatient, measured

$722 to $1,673

Median $1,418 cash against a median gross charge of $2,230, from 9 of the 9 Hawaii hospitals whose own price files we have read, out of 11 in the state, files dated to July 2026.

Limited competition outside Honolulu drives all 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. 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.
