Abstract
This study describes United States (US) pediatric hospitals' compliance with the Centers for Medicare and Medicaid price transparency rule. The price transparency rule was intended to make healthcare costs more transparent for patients and families to aid in informed decisions and help avoid unexpected charges. The price transparency rule consists of two parts: (1) a standard charge file, and (2) “shoppable services.” Using hospital websites accessed through the Children's Hospital Association during January and February 2023, we found that only 48.7% of US pediatric hospitals were fully compliant with all required components despite implementation of this rule nearly 3 years ago.
