What the Record Tells You

Fox Valley Open MRI, LLC is an NPI registry record for an MRI centre at 201 W Northland Ave in Appleton, Wisconsin 54911. CMS issued NPI 1881697837 on 23 May 2005, and the organisation last updated its own entry on 12 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: 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.

Appleton sits in the Appleton, WI metropolitan area (Outagamie County), which has 4 imaging-centre records on the Wisconsin side in the September 2026 file, 3 of them with the MRI code, out of 110 across Wisconsin. The nearest alternatives in the registry are Radiology Associates of Appleton, S.C. (2.0 miles, Appleton), Smart Choice MRI Appleton (4.0 miles, Appleton) and Thedacare Diagnostic Imaging Center (4.1 miles, Appleton), with 2 more within 18 miles.

For a cash-pay benchmark, our Wisconsin freestanding-centre estimate is $500 to $1,350 for a typical single-region MRI. At Wisconsin hospitals the cash price is measured rather than estimated: $873 to $2,544 for a brain MRI, median $2,110, from 28 of the 42 Wisconsin hospitals whose own price files we have read, out of 64 in the state, files dated to August 2026. This centre's own prices are not in the registry: call (920) 996-0724 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 Wisconsin: 28 hospitals measured

Freestanding imaging centre, estimated

$500 to $1,350

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

Hospital outpatient, measured

$873 to $2,544

Median $2,110 cash against a median gross charge of $3,811, from 28 of the 42 Wisconsin hospitals whose own price files we have read, out of 64 in the state, files dated to August 2026.

Milwaukee and Madison competitive; Aurora and Froedtert large. 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. 9 more hospitals list this code at prices more than three times apart in the same file, from $79 to $1,049, 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.
