My last MRI they billed ~$70. No insurance involved, a plain straight "you walk in from the street, you pay this" price.

I had both my knees done, I think it was AUD$400 because it was GP not specialist referred. Probably one of the more expensive things you can get done in this country, but I'm thankful it was only that much hearing from the yanks.
