What the Record Tells You

Washington Open MRI INC is an NPI registry record for an MRI centre at 6196 Oxon Hill Rd Ste 110 in Oxon Hill, Maryland 20745. CMS issued NPI 1619453891 on 11 July 2018, and the organisation last updated its own entry on 11 July 2018. That was 8 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. It also holds one other taxonomy code (261Q00000X). CMS records it as a subpart of Washington Open MRI INC., so pricing may follow the parent's policies.

Oxon Hill sits in the Washington-Arlington-Alexandria, DC-VA-MD-WV metropolitan area (Prince George's County), which has 144 imaging-centre records on the Maryland side in the September 2026 file, 14 of them with the MRI code, out of 348 across Maryland. The nearest alternatives in the registry are Tower Radiology LLC (1.7 miles, Oxon Hill), Southern Radiology Groups (2.1 miles, Washington) and South Potomac Bone Assessment Center (2.1 miles, Washington), with 2 more within 2.2 miles.

For a cash-pay benchmark, our Maryland freestanding-centre estimate is $700 to $1,900 for a typical single-region MRI. At Maryland hospitals the cash price is measured rather than estimated: $247 to $1,832 for a brain MRI, median $513, 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. This centre's own prices are not in the registry: call (301) 567-0986 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 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).

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.
