In Mexico my experience was this:

* 8am arrive to the emergency room in a private hospital

* 8:10am get seen by an internist doctor and after initial review, tell the doctor that I would like to get an MRI.

8.20 get a doctor prescribed mri ans take it to the radiology department

8:40 get the MRI

9:30 Get the results of the MRI, and pay for the whole thing: No more than $1500 USD. Without insurance .

10:00am take mri to doctor and get appropriate prescription.

That was an amazing experience. We have these incredible technologies that could be used to detect illness waaaay before . Like, allow everyone to have an MRI every 6 months. Regardless of illnes, after.say you are 30.

Plenty of urgent care places in the US will give you an mri if you walk in. It’s just expensive because labor here is crazy expensive compared to Mexico.
