Add support for "Step 9" related to the txt requirement

Created on 16 September 2024, 2 months ago

Problem/Motivation

There's a new requirement from CMS that we could probably help meet. It's "Step 9" in this file: https://www.cms.gov/files/document/steps-machine-readable-file.pdf

Effective January 1, 2024, you must ensure that the public website your hospital selects to host its
machine-readable file establishes and maintains, in the form and manner specified by CMS:
1) A .txt file in the root folder that includes:

  • o The hospital location name that corresponds to the machine-readable file;
  • o The source page URL that hosts the machine-readable file;
  • o A direct link to the machine-readable file (the machine-readable file URL); and
  • o Hospital point of contact information.

2) A link in the footer on your website, including but not limited to the homepage, that is labeled
“Price Transparency” and links directly to the publicly available web page that hosts the link to
the machine-readable file.
