How much does an MRI cost in Ogden without insurance?

Published cash prices for a knee MRI near Ogden range from $540 to $5,852 across 6 providers.

Do I need a referral for a cash-pay MRI?

Almost always yes. Utah imaging centers need an order from a physician, PA, or nurse practitioner, even for self-pay patients. You can take that order to any facility; it doesn't have to be the one your doctor suggests.

Why do MRI prices vary so much in Ogden?

Across the 6 Ogden-area providers we track, the highest published MRI price is about 24× the lowest. Hospital outpatient departments add facility fees that independent clinics and imaging centers don't charge, and different procedure codes (such as with or without contrast) are priced separately.

Where do these prices come from?

Published prices come from hospital price-transparency files required by the CMS Hospital Price Transparency Rule and from self-pay rates that clinics post or send us. Patient-reported prices are what individual patients told us they actually paid in cash. We show the two separately and never average them together.
