| Description of Subjects/Issues |
This rule changes makes multiple amendments.
1: Update the DSG with a new version for housekeeping changes to align with the upcoming Medicare Beneficiary Identifier (MBI) requirements from the Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services.
2: Adds alternate payment model files and prescription drug rebate files to the Reporting Requirements.
Problem:
Health care costs continue to increase for all stakeholders that engage with the system, whether as a consumer, payer, or provider. Currently, in Colorado, there is no data regarding either the amount of alternative payments or the volume of prescription drug rebates. Both are important and growing components of overall health care spending and costs.
Purpose:
One of the charges of the CO APCD in the enabling statute was to report on health care costs in Colorado in order to increase transparency and move toward containing these costs. The proposed changes support health care programs’ drive toward the Triple Aim with more data surrounding the total level of spending and cost of health care in Colorado. The proposed additions to the Reporting Requirements will provide a more complete picture of how health care is paid for in Colorado and will better represent the ultimate cost of prescription drugs across payer types in the state. |
