Requirement of the Transparency in Coverage Final Rule
The Transparency in Coverage Final Rule requires health insurers and some employers to publicly display certain health care price information via machine-readable files on their websites beginning July 1, 2022. These machine-readable files will include negotiated rates with in-network providers and allowed amounts for out-of-network providers. The files are in a format required by the Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services.
What this means for you
- These files will include the place of service (POS) code, your federal Taxpayer Identification Number (TIN) and your National Provider Identifier.
- It is very important, if you are using your Social Security number as your TIN, we encourage you to register for a new TIN and update us through the Demographic Change Form.
Learn more about machine-readable files and how to access them.
