Apologies if this is not the correct forum.
My question involves public health law in the State of: CA, TX
I know most if not all imaging centers require prescriptions when insurance is in play, but if one were to pay out of pocket (cash/without insurance) could he/she legally obtain an MRI without a prescription from a referring physician? ie. are there any laws in place requiring a prescription for imaging as there is for pharmaceuticals?
Thanks
