Imaging Centers in Iowa: 74 MRI and Radiology Centre Records
The September 2026 NPI file lists 74 imaging organisations in Iowa: 24 registered under the MRI or radiology clinic codes (9, or 12%, with the MRI-specific code) and 50 diagnostic-radiology organisations classified by name. Des Moines-West Des Moines is the largest market with 18 records, followed by Davenport-Moline-Rock Island (5), Iowa City (5) and Mason City (5). 14 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 Iowa runs $480 to $1,250 cash at a freestanding centre, which is our own estimate. At hospitals it is measured, not estimated: a brain MRI runs $900 to $4,896 cash, median $2,034 against a median gross charge of $2,851, from 20 of the 22 Iowa hospitals whose own price files we have read, out of 30 in the state, files dated to September 2026. A further 1 hospital publishes their chargemaster unchanged as a “cash price”, up to $229, and are not in that range. Des Moines and Iowa City have the most providers.
