  • MRI

    Doctor want's to do a MRI on my shoulder and has reccommeded a place in Texas City that will do it for 350.00.Two questions is that a decent price and when a mri is done is it the whole body or a targeted area?

      $350 isn't terrible but you may get a better quote if you call around. I'm assuming this is without insurance?

          Chris, I spoke to my good girlfriend she is a tech and said that there are places around town and affiliated with the hospitals around Houston that can give you a quote... I'd call around find a quality imaging location in your area and ask... Memorial Hermann, Methodist etc. check for imaging locations.

                            Wait til they mess up and ya gotta get it redone again and charged again! I think the $350 may be your deductible? Mona's had about 6 or 8 of em and paid anywhere from $350-500-just depened on where she was at with deductible.


                            Sounds like Coe has all the info and can get ya a good answer. I think mine was $500-but I have fairly crummy insurance coverage. I think true cost is like Michelle said or more-thousands. Good luck on this. I hope you aren't clostrophobic and like loud thumping noises.
                            "Hey Hillary, regarding the Benghazi Attack on 9/11-we'll just blame it on that movie, not my total lack of security. By the way, what's so significant about 9/11 anyway-was that a date my buddy Bill Ayers of the Weather Underground blew up a government building?" asked Obama to Hillary.

                              Dont worry about any of it now.
