Automated analysis of the public file, using the current MRF Preflight ruleset. Not legal advice. Hospitals may re-scan at any time.

L2: Completeness and plausibility

File has a plausible amount of charge and payer coverage

Info · HPT-L2-060

A hospital MRF with only a handful of line items or a single payer is very unlikely to represent the hospital's full standard charge list, even if the file otherwise validates cleanly.

File looks thin: only 1 distinct payer(s).

Citation: CMS Hospital Price Transparency FAQ, completeness guidance

Remediation: Confirm the file actually contains the hospital's complete chargemaster and all contracted payers, not a partial export.

L3: Discoverability compliance

MRF filename follows the CMS naming convention

Warning · HPT-L3-002

CMS expects the MRF filename to follow <ein>_<hospital-name>_standardcharges.<ext>. A non-conforming filename makes the file harder for automated tools (including CMS's own review process) to identify.

Filename "Reports.aspx?dbName=dbNSRHNOMEAK&type=CDMWithoutLabel&fileType=CSV" doesn't match <ein>_<hospital-name>_standardcharges.<ext>.

Citation: 45 CFR 180.50(b)(1)(i) — file naming convention

Remediation: Rename the file to <ein>_<hospital-name>_standardcharges.csv (or .json), using the hospital's EIN with no dashes.
