Self-pay MRI


Self-pay MRI at our Arkansas centers is $500 per scan, and you do not need a referral to book. Many patients with high-deductible plans choose self-pay because the price is clear upfront. Learn more in our guide to cash pay MRI.


Insurance


If you want to use insurance, you need a doctor's order. Call your insurance company to ask whether the scan is covered and whether prior authorization is required before your visit.


Workers' compensation and personal injury


We accept workers' compensation and personal injury cases. For a work injury, follow your employer's and insurer's process for approval. For an accident claim, your attorney may coordinate payment with us. This is general information, not legal advice. Talk with your attorney about your case.


What to expect on scan day


Arrive a few minutes early to complete a short safety form. Tell the team about any metal in your body, such as a pacemaker, joint replacement, clips or shrapnel. Wear comfortable clothes without metal, and leave jewelry at home.


During the scan you lie still on a padded table while the machine takes pictures. The machine is loud, so you will get ear protection. Most patients are in and out in about 35 minutes, depending on the exam. For more tips, read our complete guide to what to expect.


When will my results be ready?


A board-certified radiologist reads your images and writes a report. Results usually go to your referring doctor (or attorney, in injury cases) within 24 hours. Your doctor will go over the findings with you and explain next steps. You can also ask the center about getting a copy of your images.
