Attestation and responsible officialPassed
MRF correctly encodes the accuracy and completeness attestationPassed
The completed structural evaluation reported no deficiency for this nonconditional check.
MRF correctly encodes the attester's namePassed
The completed structural evaluation reported no deficiency for this nonconditional check.
Hospital and MRF information1 couldn't be determined
MRF declares this hospital's Type 2 NPICouldn't determine
Why: CareCarta's reference data lacks a value needed for this check, such as the hospital's NPI.
CareCarta's facility reference has no Type 2 NPI to compare.
MRF correctly encodes its template version and update datePassed
The completed structural evaluation reported no deficiency for this nonconditional check.
Standard charges1 couldn't be determined
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 9,216,808 rows and blank on 0 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 9,100,997 rows and blank on 115,811 rows. The MRF alone cannot prove that every applicable hospital item or service is represented.
MRF correctly encodes the de-identified minimum negotiated chargePassed
No structural deficiency was reported across 9,106,259 dollar-denominated payer-rate records.
MRF correctly encodes the de-identified maximum negotiated chargePassed
No structural deficiency was reported across 9,106,259 dollar-denominated payer-rate records.
Payer-specific negotiated charge1 couldn't be determined
MRF correctly encodes payer and plan namesPassed
The completed structural evaluation reported no deficiency for this nonconditional check.
MRF correctly encodes how each charge was establishedPassed
The completed structural evaluation reported no deficiency for this nonconditional check.
Rate expression and methodology1 couldn't be determined
MRF expresses each negotiated rate as a dollar amount, percentage, or algorithmPassed
The completed structural evaluation reported no deficiency for this nonconditional check.
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.
7,985,240 percentage- or algorithm-based payer rates require semantic review of whether a reasonable user can derive a dollar amount.
Allowed-amount statisticsPassed
MRF correctly encodes the 10th percentile allowed amountPassed
The field passed structural validation for 7,985,240 applicable payer-rate records.
MRF correctly encodes the median allowed amountPassed
The field passed structural validation for 7,985,240 applicable payer-rate records.
MRF correctly encodes the 90th percentile allowed amountPassed
The field passed structural validation for 7,985,240 applicable payer-rate records.
MRF correctly encodes the count of allowed amountsPassed
The count field passed structural validation for 7,985,240 applicable payer-rate records.
Item and service informationPassed
MRF correctly encodes each item or service descriptionPassed
The completed structural evaluation reported no deficiency for this nonconditional check.
MRF correctly encodes the inpatient or outpatient settingPassed
The completed structural evaluation reported no deficiency for this nonconditional check.
MRF correctly encodes drug units and measurement typeNot applicable
No NDC-coded records were found across 9,216,808 parsed records.
Billing and coding informationPassed
MRF correctly encodes billing codes and code typesPassed
The completed structural evaluation reported no deficiency for this nonconditional check.
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.

The completed structural evaluation reported no deficiency for this nonconditional check.
Publication and accessibility1 failed

CareCarta retrieved the file without submitting personally identifiable information.
MRF downloads to an automated clientPassed
An automated HTTP client downloaded the declared MRF successfully.
MRF is a CSV or JSON file, optionally compressedPassed
The downloaded artifact provides CSV that can be processed as structured text.
MRF file name follows the CMS conventionFailed
The published file name Indianapolis_Endoscopy_Center.csv does not match the required standardcharges file name structure.
cms-hpt.txt is published and uses the required fieldsCouldn't determine
Why: CareCarta does not have an address for this hospital's source.
No cms-hpt.txt URL was supplied to this audit run.
cms-hpt.txt links this hospital's MRFCouldn't determine
Why: CareCarta does not have an address for this hospital's source.
No cms-hpt.txt URL was supplied to this audit run.
Homepage has a link labelled Price TransparencyCouldn't determine

MRF was updated within the past 12 monthsPassed
The MRF reports 2025-12-16, within one year of this audit observation.
Shoppable services disclosureNot assessed
Website offers a qualifying shoppable-services list or price estimatorNot assessed
