THe Health Plan Machine-Readable Files (MRFs)

The Health Plan provides machine-readable files (MRFs) that are made available as required by the Transparency in Coverage Rule on behalf of B&W. These MRFs are updated monthly and include information regarding in-network negotiated payment rates and historical out-of-network allowed amounts between health plans and healthcare providers. The goal in providing MRFs is to allow the public to have access to health coverage information that can be used to understand health care pricing and potentially reduce the increase in health care spending.
