Benefits of Going to an Outpatient Imaging Center

Did you know that there are many options for choosing imaging services? Today, patients have options and can avoid hospitals with outpatient options. With your doctor's prescription, you can choose the best options for you and your family, with lots of affordable options close to home.

With healthcare costs on the rise, learn about affordable options at local imaging centers. Prices for out-of-pocket MRIs or CT scans at hospitals are hard to predict. Cost-effectiveness and convenience of the location of your diagnostic imaging centers are important to healthcare consumers today.

Outpatient imaging centers offer better choices in locations with evening and weekend appointments to accommodate busy schedules.

Outpatient imaging centers offer great benefits to patients’ pocketbook and lifestyle:

  • Cost savings and price transparency
  • In-network imaging services close to home with convenient locations and hours
  • Hospital-quality imaging with advanced technology

Because of the hospital's classification, they often charge more for medical imaging than freestanding imaging centers. A hospital's out-of-pocket costs can vary according to healthcare plans and the amount your insurance covers.

Outpatient imaging centers provide the same quality treatment and state-of-the-art MRI machine as hospitals at a drastically lower cost than hospitals.

Hospital-quality imaging is available at Houston MRI without hospital costs. There are several convenient MRI locations across the Houston metro area, so you can get your imaging services at a reasonable cost.
