There are number of MRI studies, such as Brain, Cervical, Thoracic, Lumbar, etc. that can be performed while you are seated or standing. You will have the study done while watching Television, thus alleviating any sense of anxiety or Claustrophobia.
We participate in many national insurance plans most local health plans, medical groups and IPA's. However, it is your responsibility to understand whether your insurance has limits on the doctors you can see or the services you can receive.
If you provide complete and accurate information about your insurance, we will submit claims to your insurance carrier and receive payments for services. Depending on your insurance coverage, you may be responsible for co-payments, co-insurance, or other deductible amounts.
Please note that the vast majority of insurance carriers now require prior authorization for advanced diagnostic imaging services such as MRI, CT and PET/CT. Your primary care or treating physician's office should obtain the authorization on your behalf prior to scheduling the procedure at our facility.
Please contact your insurance carrier for questions regarding your coverage.
