What the Record Tells You

Medical Edge Healthcare Group PA is an NPI registry record for a radiology clinic/centre at 399 Melrose Dr Ste A in Richardson, Texas 75080. CMS issued NPI 1740207539 on 16 July 2006, and the organisation last updated its own entry on 21 October 2010. That was 15 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.

Richardson sits in the Dallas-Fort Worth-Arlington, TX metropolitan area (Dallas County), which has 465 imaging-centre records on the Texas side in the September 2026 file, 99 of them with the MRI code, out of 1,450 across Texas. The nearest alternatives in the registry are Texas Radiology Associates LLP (0.4 miles, Richardson), Touchstone Imaging Richardson (0.5 miles, Richardson) and Preferred Imaging of Garland, LLC (1.9 miles, Richardson), with 2 more within 3.3 miles.

For a cash-pay benchmark, our Texas freestanding-centre estimate is $500 to $1,400 for a typical single-region MRI. At Texas hospitals the cash price is measured rather than estimated: $236 to $10,390 for a brain MRI, median $2,190, from 125 of the 194 Texas hospitals whose own price files we have read, out of 285 in the state, files dated to September 2026. Published hospital cash prices in Dallas-Fort Worth-Arlington run from $1,362.00 (Parkland Memorial Hospital) to $6,582.88 (Medical City Dallas) for a brain MRI without contrast, from the hospitals' federal transparency files. This centre's own prices are not in the registry: call (972) 234-2000 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 Texas: 125 hospitals measured

Freestanding imaging centre, estimated

$500 to $1,400

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

Hospital outpatient, measured

$236 to $10,390

Median $2,190 cash against a median gross charge of $4,174, from 125 of the 194 Texas hospitals whose own price files we have read, out of 285 in the state, files dated to September 2026.

Houston, Dallas, Austin, San Antonio all competitive; Houston Methodist and MD Anderson at the top. 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 42 hospitals publish a “cash price” that is its chargemaster restated rather than a discount, reaching $23,252; those are kept out of the band above and counted here instead. 4 more hospitals list this code at prices more than three times apart in the same file, from $124 to $362, 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).

Parsed hospital cash prices for Dallas-Fort Worth-Arlington (brain MRI, CPT 70551): Parkland Memorial Hospital $1,362.00; Methodist Dallas Medical Center $2,324.00; Texas Health Presbyterian Hospital Dallas $2,504.25 and 1 more. Full table on the Dallas-Fort Worth-Arlington metro page.

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.

Full list: cheap MRI, good MRI checklist.
