FEDERAL HEALTH CARE PRICE TRANSPARENCY REQUIREMENTS

The Federal Health Care Price Transparency Requirements have created Machine Readable Files to make public the financial arrangements in place between heath plans and providers. These files are designed to be read by a computer and are intended to be available at the industry level for health care researchers, policymakers, analytics companies and applications software to have access to health plan costs nationally on an aggregate basis for the first time.

Machine-readable files are a requirement of the Transparency in Coverage Final Rule.

Health insurers are required to publicly display certain health care price information via machine-readable files on their websites. GN’s (ReSound, Beltone and Audigy) medical provider, BCBSMN will have “Transparency in Coverage” (TiC) information available.
