Transparency checks

45 CFR Part 180 — Hospital Price TransparencyLatest evaluation: Sep 28, 2026
§180.50(a)(3)Attestation and responsible official2 failed
§180.50(a)(3)(iii)MRF correctly encodes the accuracy and completeness attestationFailed
  • Header column "To the best of its knowledge and belief, this hospital has…" is miscoded or missing.

Each header listed must be included and encoded as the CMS data dictionary specifies.

§180.50(a)(3)(iv)MRF correctly encodes the attester's nameFailed
  • Header column "attester_name" is miscoded or missing.

Each header listed must be included and encoded as the CMS data dictionary specifies.

§180.50(b)(2)(i)Hospital and MRF information1 couldn't be determined
§180.50(b)(2)(i)(A)MRF declares this hospital's Type 2 NPICouldn't determine

Why: The hospital's file does not include a value this check needs.

The MRF does not declare a Type 2 NPI.

§180.50(b)(2)(i)(B)MRF correctly encodes its template version and update datePassed

The completed structural evaluation reported no deficiency for this nonconditional check.

§180.50(b)(2)(ii)Standard charges4 failed
§180.50(b)(2)(ii)MRF lists a gross charge for every item and serviceNot assessed

Why: The price file alone cannot answer this; it needs evidence from outside the file.

Gross charge values are populated on 24,996 rows and blank on 0 rows. The MRF alone cannot prove that every applicable hospital item or service is represented.

§180.50(b)(2)(ii)MRF lists a discounted cash price for every item and service that has oneNot assessed

Why: The price file alone cannot answer this; it needs evidence from outside the file.

Discounted cash price values are populated on 24,996 rows and blank on 0 rows. The MRF alone cannot prove that every applicable hospital item or service is represented.

§180.50(b)(2)(ii)MRF correctly encodes the de-identified minimum negotiated chargeBlocked

Blocked because this check failed: MRF passes the CMS validator without errors

The CMS validator found errors in the file's header rows and did not check the charge rows, so this check could not be evaluated. This is not a separate failure.

§180.50(b)(2)(ii)MRF correctly encodes the de-identified maximum negotiated chargeBlocked

Blocked because this check failed: MRF passes the CMS validator without errors

The CMS validator found errors in the file's header rows and did not check the charge rows, so this check could not be evaluated. This is not a separate failure.

§180.50(b)(2)(ii)(A)-(C)Payer-specific negotiated charge4 failed
§180.50(b)(2)(ii)(A)MRF correctly encodes payer and plan namesBlocked

Blocked because this check failed: MRF passes the CMS validator without errors

The CMS validator found errors in the file's header rows and did not check the charge rows, so this check could not be evaluated. This is not a separate failure.

§180.50(b)(2)(ii)(B)MRF correctly encodes how each charge was establishedBlocked

Blocked because this check failed: MRF passes the CMS validator without errors

The CMS validator found errors in the file's header rows and did not check the charge rows, so this check could not be evaluated. This is not a separate failure.

§180.50(b)(2)(ii)(C)Rate expression and methodology4 failed
§180.50(b)(2)(ii)(C)MRF expresses each negotiated rate as a dollar amount, percentage, or algorithmBlocked

Blocked because this check failed: MRF passes the CMS validator without errors

The CMS validator found errors in the file's header rows and did not check the charge rows, so this check could not be evaluated. This is not a separate failure.

§180.50(a)(3)(iii) or §180.50(b)(2)(ii)(C)Percentage and algorithm rates give enough information to derive a dollar amountCouldn't determine

Why: This needs a person to judge; the automated check cannot decide it.

23,134 percentage- or algorithm-based payer rates require semantic review of whether a reasonable user can derive a dollar amount.

§180.50(b)(2)(ii)(C)(2)Allowed-amount statistics4 failed
§180.50(b)(2)(ii)(C)(2)MRF correctly encodes the 10th percentile allowed amountFailed

Column 10th_percentile is miscoded or missing from row 3. You must include this column and confirm that it is encoded as specified in the data dictionary.

§180.50(b)(2)(ii)(C)(2)MRF correctly encodes the median allowed amountFailed

Column median_amount is miscoded or missing from row 3. You must include this column and confirm that it is encoded as specified in the data dictionary.

§180.50(b)(2)(ii)(C)(2)MRF correctly encodes the 90th percentile allowed amountFailed

Column 90th_percentile is miscoded or missing from row 3. You must include this column and confirm that it is encoded as specified in the data dictionary.

§180.50(b)(2)(ii)(C)(2)MRF correctly encodes the count of allowed amountsFailed

Column count is miscoded or missing from row 3. You must include this column and confirm that it is encoded as specified in the data dictionary.

§180.50(b)(2)(iii)Item and service information2 blocked
§180.50(b)(2)(iii)(A)MRF correctly encodes each item or service descriptionBlocked

Blocked because this check failed: MRF passes the CMS validator without errors

The CMS validator found errors in the file's header rows and did not check the charge rows, so this check could not be evaluated. This is not a separate failure.

§180.50(b)(2)(iii)(B)MRF correctly encodes the inpatient or outpatient settingBlocked

Blocked because this check failed: MRF passes the CMS validator without errors

The CMS validator found errors in the file's header rows and did not check the charge rows, so this check could not be evaluated. This is not a separate failure.

§180.50(b)(2)(iii)(C)MRF correctly encodes drug units and measurement typeNot applicable

No NDC-coded records were found across 24,996 parsed records.

§180.50(b)(2)(iv)Billing and coding information1 blocked
§180.50(b)(2)(iv)(A)-(B)MRF correctly encodes billing codes and code typesBlocked

Blocked because this check failed: MRF passes the CMS validator without errors

The CMS validator found errors in the file's header rows and did not check the charge rows, so this check could not be evaluated. This is not a separate failure.

§180.50(b)(2)(iv)(C)MRF lists every applicable modifier and its chargesNot assessed

Why: The price file alone cannot answer this; it needs evidence from outside the file.

The MRF was parsed for encoded modifiers, but the file alone cannot establish whether every applicable modifier-specific charge is represented.

§180.50(c)(2)CMS file format1 failed
§180.50(c)(2)MRF passes the CMS validator without errorsFailed
  • Header column "location_name" is miscoded or missing.
  • Header column "type_2_npi" is miscoded or missing.
  • Header column "To the best of its knowledge and belief, this hospital has…" is miscoded or missing.
  • Header column "attester_name" is miscoded or missing.
  • Column median_amount is miscoded or missing from row 3.
  • You must include this column and confirm that it is encoded as specified in the data dictionary. (reported 4 times)
  • Column 10th_percentile is miscoded or missing from row 3.
  • Column 90th_percentile is miscoded or missing from row 3.
  • Column count is miscoded or missing from row 3.
  • Errors were found in the headers in row 3, so the remaining rows were not evaluated.

Each header listed must be included and encoded as the CMS data dictionary specifies.

The published file name 822445000_the-health-care-authority-of-city-of-greenville---lv-stabler_standardcharges.csv matches the required identifier, hospital-name, and standardcharges structure.

§180.50(d)(6)(i)cms-hpt.txt is published and uses the required fieldsCouldn't determine
