In this session, we will offer an overview of the data found in payer machine-readable files (MRFs), highlighting typical data quality issues and ways to deal with them. Following this, the discussion will move to payer-provider contracting, focusing on how payers can use price transparency data to pinpoint competitive strengths and weaknesses in support of crafting a stronger network.
Attendees will leave the session with a greater understanding of the opportunities and limitations within payer price transparency data and how to work within its limitations to support more transparent payer-provider negotiations.
