§180.50(b)(2)(ii)Standard charges5 blocked
§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 285 rows and blank on 1,918 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 285 rows and blank on 1,918 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 charge3 blocked
§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 methodology1 blocked
§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 amountNot applicable

The upstream applicability condition was conclusively absent.

§180.50(b)(2)(ii)(C)(2)Allowed-amount statisticsNot applicable
§180.50(b)(2)(ii)(C)(2)MRF correctly encodes the 10th percentile allowed amountNot applicable

The upstream applicability condition was conclusively absent.

§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 2,203 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.

CareCarta has not built an evaluator for the shoppable-services disclosure (45 CFR 180.60) yet, so this check cannot be decided.
