Center for Health Information and Analysis holds hearing on proposed regulatory amendments dealing with payer data reporting, assessment on certain health care providers and surcharge payers, cost reporting, nursing facility cost reporting, hospital financial data reporting requirements, and other data submission and reporting. "The amended regulations govern CHIA's enforcement of requirements that payers, providers, and others make data submissions to CHIA. The proposed amendments provide additional information to data submitters about CHIA's process for imposing monetary penalties when organizations fail to submit data as required, including organizations' right to an adjudicatory hearing," the agency said in a notice.
