CMS March 28 released an updated online validator tool that hospitals can use to test price transparency machine-readable files against the new format and data specifications going into effect on July 1, 2024, and Jan. 1, 2025. The tool runs on a web browser and is intended for nontechnical users. CMS released a video demonstrating how to use the tool. This is one of several resources CMS recently released to assist hospitals with hospital price transparency requirements compliance.
