Hi Dan,
It all comes down to clinical indications as whether or not your insurance will spring for another MRI or if it's even ecessary. If your exam findings are suggestive of a disc issue, for example in your lower back, then your doc may feel compelled to order a lumbar MRI. It's not so much that your insurance counts how many per your you have and basis a decision on that merit.
