Maryland, NPI registry September 2026

Imaging Centers in Maryland: 348 MRI and Radiology Centre Records

The September 2026 NPI file lists 348 imaging organisations in Maryland: 95 registered under the MRI or radiology clinic codes (25, or 7%, with the MRI-specific code) and 253 diagnostic-radiology organisations classified by name. Washington-Arlington-Alexandria is the largest market with 144 records, followed by Baltimore-Columbia-Towson (139), Cumberland (10) and Salisbury (10). 10 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 Maryland runs $700 to $1,900 cash at a freestanding centre, which is our own estimate. At hospitals it is measured, not estimated: a brain MRI runs $247 to $1,832 cash, median $513 against a median gross charge of $556, from 16 of the 23 Maryland hospitals whose own price files we have read, out of 43 in the state, files dated to June 2026. A further 1 hospital publishes their chargemaster unchanged as a “cash price”, up to $2,126, and are not in that range. Maryland uses all-payer hospital rate setting; cash-pay still high at academic centres.

Cash-Price Context for Maryland

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 Maryland: 16 hospitals measured

Freestanding imaging centre, estimated

$700 to $1,900
Our own estimate. No imaging operator publishes a per-state cash price.

Hospital outpatient, measured

$247 to $1,832
Median $513 cash against a median gross charge of $556, from 16 of the 23 Maryland hospitals whose own price files we have read, out of 43 in the state, files dated to June 2026.

Maryland uses all-payer hospital rate setting; cash-pay still high at academic centres. 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 1 hospital publishes a “cash price” that is its chargemaster restated rather than a discount, reaching $2,126; 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 Maryland

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