South East Radiology Nowra, Vision XRAY Shoalhaven Medical Imaging Nowra and Kiama Diagnostic Imaging are on the Government's Medicare-eligible MRI list (last updated 17 February 2026); Prp Diagnostic Imaging-Shellharbour is accredited for MRI but not on that list, so a scan there may not attract a rebate.

The register has these accreditations running to: South East Radiology Nowra to 30 June 2027, Vision XRAY Shoalhaven Medical Imaging Nowra to 31 July 2027 and Kiama Diagnostic Imaging to 30 November 2027. We drop a modality the day its accreditation lapses, so if it is listed above it is current.
