Prepare to Display New Hospital Price Transparency Data in CMS Templates

What’s Happening: The Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services (CMS) has released resources on the newly finalized price transparency machine readable file (MRF) requirements.  

What Else to Know: Hospitals have until July 1, 2024, to comply.   

CMS recently launched a resource site on GitHub to support hospitals in meeting the requirements. Available resources include MRF templates, instructions, and technical support.  

CMS will hold a webinar on Jan. 17 to review the new requirements, demonstrate template use, and demonstrate the GitHub platform.
