Transparency in Coverage Rule – Machine-Readable Files
The table below provides links that lead to the machine-readable files that are made available by the carriers and third party administrators that insure or administer the Participating Medical Plan under the Accenture US Group Health Plan to comply with the federal Transparency in Coverage Rule. The machine-readable files include the negotiated service rates and out-of-network allowed amounts between the Participating Medical Plan and many healthcare providers. The machine-readable files are designed to allow researchers, regulators, and application developers to more easily access and analyze data. As noted in the table below, certain of the links go directly to Accenture data, while other links go to a site where Accenture data can be obtained by inserting the relevant search terms shown in the table.
