On November 12, 2020, the Department of Health and Human Services (HHS), the Department of Labor, and the Department of the Treasury published the Transparency in Coverage Final Rule (85 FR 72158-01), which is the price transparency mandate for group health plans and health insurance issuers in the individual and group markets in the United States.

Effective January 1, 2022, and fully phasing in over a three-year period, the Transparency in Coverage rule will require group health plans and health insurance issuers to:

• Publicly disclose negotiated rates for in-network providers and allowed amounts for out-of-network providers
• Disclose cost-sharing information and other pricing information to members

Even though the machine-readable data files provided in Phase 1 of the Transparency in Coverage rule are available to the public beginning 7/1/2022 and are intended for the public at large, the particular format mandated by the Transparency in Coverage rule for these machine-readable data files is more suited to be used by researchers and application developers using skills common to application developers rather than for individual members.

1. 1)The machine-readable data files will be provided in JSON (JavaScript Object Notation) format
2. 2)The machine-readable data files will be published monthly.
3. 3)Nidec will not be providing the software required to read the files in JSON format.
4. 4)The link to the Machine Readable Files is: https://www.bcbsal.org/web/tcr

Beginning in 2023, the requirements in the Transparency in Coverage rule will give members the tools needed to access pricing information through their health plans in order to help make informed decisions about their healthcare.

We will be updating this link as and when required by United States law.
