How much does a used MRI cost?

Answer

The short answer is it depends. The fee can vary greatly depending on where you get it done and what the negotiated cost is with your insurance company. In most cases a hospital will charge you more because they often have facility fees.

A client of mine had two MRIs doen this year. One (at a hospital) cost over $4900 AFTER the network discounts. One (at a brand new free-standing facility) cost $900 AFTER the discounts.

If you ask before you have it done you MAY get the amount they bill the insurance company but it is next to impossible to get the amount the insurance company will allow until after it is done and billed.
