Clear Costs, No Hidden Fees

Starting in 2024, the retail price for examinations at our facilities is $1099 for non-contrast examinations and $1799 for examinations requiring a contrast injection. This INCLUDES our radiologist’s interpretation; no separate charges will be incurred. These retail rates are the lowest in the region, by up to 75%.

We can offer this great pricing because we are an independent, outpatient facility specializing in just one service. At Vermont Open MRI and New Hampshire Open MRI, we try our best to make the financial process clear and manageable.
