What the Record Tells You

Wyoming Valley PET Associates is an NPI registry record for a radiology clinic/centre at 190 Welles St in Forty Fort, Pennsylvania 18704. CMS issued NPI 1720066392 on 4 January 2006, and the organisation last updated its own entry on 18 June 2008. That was 18 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.

Forty Fort sits in the Scranton--Wilkes-Barre, PA metropolitan area (Luzerne County), which has 35 imaging-centre records on the Pennsylvania side in the September 2026 file, 0 of them with the MRI code, out of 419 across Pennsylvania. The nearest alternatives in the registry are Valley Open MRI and Diagnostic Ctr (0.9 miles, Kingston), Radiology Associates of Wyoming Valley, INC (1.2 miles, Wilkes Barre) and Radiology INC (1.2 miles, Wilkes Barre), with 2 more within 2.4 miles.

For a cash-pay benchmark, our Pennsylvania freestanding-centre estimate is $550 to $1,500 for a typical single-region MRI. At Pennsylvania hospitals the cash price is measured rather than estimated: $234 to $6,214 for a brain MRI, median $1,017, from 51 of the 73 Pennsylvania hospitals whose own price files we have read, out of 131 in the state, files dated to September 2026. This centre's own prices are not in the registry: call (570) 331-7702 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 Pennsylvania: 51 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

$234 to $6,214

Median $1,017 cash against a median gross charge of $3,014, from 51 of the 73 Pennsylvania hospitals whose own price files we have read, out of 131 in the state, files dated to September 2026.

Philly and Pittsburgh have academic premiums; central PA more competitive. 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 $9,957; those are kept out of the band above and counted here instead. 10 more hospitals list this code at prices more than three times apart in the same file, from $45 to $1,522, 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

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.
