Questions people ask

What does Hospital Price Transparency MRF Lint actually do?

It reads a hospital standard charges machine-readable file in the CMS JSON template and reports, with line numbers, every place it departs from 45 CFR Part 180 and the template data dictionary. 15 rules run offline in the editor. The dirty sample file returns 17 findings, 15 of them errors, and the clean sample returns none.

Who is it for?

US hospital revenue-cycle engineers, chargemaster analysts, and the contractors who build the standard charges export out of Epic, Cerner, Meditech or a home-grown script. If you are the person who answers when CMS emails the hospital about its posted file, this is written for you.

Why will a free JSON validator or a chatbot not do this?

A validator checks that braces balance. The CMS template carries conditional duties: estimated_amount is required only when the rate is a percentage or an algorithm, additional_payer_notes only when the methodology is other, and 45 CFR 180.50(d)(2) wants an update at least every 365 days, which only a tool that knows today's date can count. A chat assistant answers from an older template version.

What is free and what does the full version add?

Free, with no key: open one standard charges JSON file and every one of the 15 rules reports with a line number. That is the whole check for that file. The full version adds scale and the paper trail - a sweep of every hospital location file in the workspace and one dated evidence report you export and keep.

What does this cost compared with the alternatives?

A hospital price-transparency review by a revenue-integrity consultancy is commonly quoted as a five-figure engagement; this extension is 29 dollars once. Under 45 CFR 180.90 CMS can impose a civil monetary penalty of 10 dollars per bed per day, capped at 5500 dollars a day and 2007500 dollars a year for one hospital.
