GAP (1)

Every one of 30,876 rows uses a percentage of billed charges, not a dollar figure

None of the file's rows carry an actual negotiated dollar amount for any payer. All of them rely on a percentage-of-billed-charges term instead, which technically satisfies §180.50 but leaves the patient to do the arithmetic against a charge they'd have to look up separately.

WATCH (1)

The file was republished two days before this review, and the underlying gap didn't change

The file's HTTP headers show it was last modified Sep 16, 2026, two days before this review, but its own last_updated_on attestation field still reads May 26, 2026. Whatever the refresh updated, it wasn't the dollar-figure coverage or the attestation date.

CLEAR (1)

7.4% of rows do carry the percentile figures, more than several other files in this review

2,283 of 30,876 rows carry the median/10th/90th percentile figures CMS has required since April. That's a real, if partial, start on the newer requirement, computed independently of whether the dollar-figure column itself is populated.

04Open questions
01

What did the September 16 file refresh actually change, if not the dollar-figure coverage or the attestation date?

Knowing what the refresh touched narrows down where to look for whoever is already working on this file.

02

Is a dollar-equivalent figure derivable from the percentage-of-charges terms already on file, using the hospital's own chargemaster?

If the underlying charge amounts are known, converting the existing percentage terms to dollar figures may be more mechanical than starting from zero.
