In preparation for hospital price transparency requirements that become effective January 2021, the Florida Hospital Association provided programming that includes sessions on price transparency during its 28th Annual Managed Care Conference.
PYA Senior Manager Kathy Reep spoke on “Price Transparency: Beyond the Final Rule.” She provided a brief refresher on the upcoming requirements, but also looked beyond the rule. She also:
- Explored the potential consequences of compliance, including rate comparisons and benchmarking.
- Looked at the implications of non-compliance, including the requirements of the September Executive Order regarding transparency.
- Reviewed a number of frequently asked questions related to the final rule and the new requirements included in the FY 2021 IPPS Final Rule.
Other sessions included reference-based pricing, federal and state legislative issues, and legal updates. The virtual conference took place November 12-13, 2020.
