Reply to comment by DocCarlson in Where in PA can I go and get a MRI done with cash/ w/o insurance? by PhillyJo3

I think that's just the hospital you went to. I have most certainly had mri's in the e.r non admitted.

Yeah like if you’re ruling out acute myelopathy or stroke or something. But subacute headaches? That’s prob going to be very difficult to justify to insurance companies. And as much as I hate them, they’d kind of be right not to cover this in an inpatient setting. Those machines are usually at capacity dealing with actual emergent/urgent stuff.
