The completed structural evaluation reported no deficiency for this nonconditional check.
Hospital and MRF informationPassed
MRF declares this hospital's Type 2 NPIPassed
The MRF declares this hospital's Type 2 NPI 1437102993.
MRF correctly encodes its template version and update datePassed

Standard charges2 failed
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 584,749 rows and blank on 430 rows. The MRF alone cannot prove that every applicable hospital item or service is represented.
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 579,731 rows and blank on 5,448 rows. The MRF alone cannot prove that every applicable hospital item or service is represented.
MRF correctly encodes the de-identified minimum negotiated chargeFailed
Column standard_charge | min is miscoded or missing from row 3. You must include this column and confirm that it is encoded as specified in the data dictionary.
MRF correctly encodes the de-identified maximum negotiated chargeFailed
Column standard_charge | max is miscoded or missing from row 3. You must include this column and confirm that it is encoded as specified in the data dictionary.
Payer-specific negotiated charge7 blocked
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.
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.
Rate expression and methodology5 blocked
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.
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.
548,355 percentage- or algorithm-based payer rates require semantic review of whether a reasonable user can derive a dollar amount.
Allowed-amount statistics4 blocked
MRF correctly encodes the 10th percentile allowed amountBlocked
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.
MRF correctly encodes the median allowed amountBlocked
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.
MRF correctly encodes the 90th percentile allowed amountBlocked
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.
MRF correctly encodes the count of allowed amountsBlocked
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.
Item and service information3 blocked
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.
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.
MRF correctly encodes drug units and measurement typeBlocked
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.
Billing and coding information1 blocked
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.
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.
CMS file format1 failed
MRF passes the CMS validator without errorsFailed
- Column standard_charge | min 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 2 times)
- Column standard_charge | max is miscoded or missing from row 3.
- Errors were found in the headers in row 3, so the remaining rows were not evaluated.

Why: CareCarta does not have an address for this hospital's source.
No cms-hpt.txt URL was supplied to this audit run.

Update frequencyPassed
MRF was updated within the past 12 monthsPassed
The MRF reports 1/1/2026, within one year of this audit observation.
Shoppable services disclosureNot assessed
Website offers a qualifying shoppable-services list or price estimatorNot assessed
