The Transparency in Coverage Act (Consolidated Appropriations Act of 2020 and the No Surprises Act (Consolidated Appropriations Act of 2021) – collectively the “NSA” – included provisions requiring health plan sponsors to disclose certain information via the plan sponsor's public website. Data files must be available to the public without restrictions that might impede information re-use.
To meet this requirement, MedBen created the MedBen Transparency in Coverage Resource Data Center. The online Resource Center includes the required machine-readable file (MRF) data retrieved using a single online link – which has been added to this website making it compliant.
The Resource Data Center link is here: https://mb.mrf.payercompass.com
Per the requirements of the NSA, the data files provided through the link will be updated every month. One note: The data is not intended for use by individual employees or employers. In fact, the data included in some of these files is so voluminous that opening it could tie up a personal computer or laptop. The machine-readable files are formatted to allow researchers, regulators, and application developers to more easily access and analyze data.
