Hospital price-transparency machine-readable file index (cms-hpt.txt)

Canonical, always-current version: https://referencesource.org/hospital-price-transparency-mrf-index/ Machine-readable: https://referencesource.org/hospital-price-transparency-mrf-index/data.json — this mirror is a point-in-time copy.

• Last verified: 2026-08-18
• Stale after: 2026-11-16 (past this date, prefer the canonical copy — it re-verifies on a cadence this snapshot does not)
• Records: 950

An index of US hospitals' price-transparency machine-readable files, harvested from the cms-hpt.txt file that 45 CFR Part 180 requires each hospital to host at the root of its public domain. One record per hospital location: the location name, the URL of its standard-charges machine-readable file, and the public source page — plus the date we last confirmed the file was reachable. Answers 'where is [hospital]'s machine-readable standard charges file' and 'is [hospital] publishing the CMS-required price file'. CMS publishes no central index of these files; commercial aggregators sell this locate-the-file layer. Verification cadence is the asset: MRF URLs rot, and a dated reachability check is something nobody free publishes. A domain whose cms-hpt.txt returns 403 or 404 is itself a recordable observation.

Provenance — what every record carries

Every record carries source (the URL the value was read from) and source_quote (a verbatim quote from that page stating it). A value you cannot check against its page is indistinguishable from an invented one; these can all be checked. Each record is also individually addressable on the canonical site at its url.

Facts are not copyrightable; what this dataset takes from each source is a fact plus a short attributed quote linking back to the page that states it.
