We are proposing new requirements for Medicare Advantage (MA) organizations, state Medicaid fee-for-service (FFS) programs, state Children's Health Insurance Program (CHIP) FFS programs, Medicaid managed care plans, CHIP managed care entities, and Qualified Health Plan (QHP) issuers on the Federally-facilitated Exchanges (FFEs), including issuers that offer small group market QHPs on the Federally-facilitated Small Business Health Options Program (FF- SHOP) Exchanges (hereinafter referred to as \"small group market QHP issuers on the FF-SHOPs\") (collectively \"impacted payers\"), to make available electronic prior authorization for drugs. We are also proposing to extend many existing interoperability requirements for the prior authorization of non-drug items and services to include prior authorizations for drugs to further reduce patient and provider burden. We are also proposing to require impacted payers to report their application programming interfaces (API) endpoints and related information for the Patient Access, Provider Directory, Provider Access, Payer-to-Payer, and Prior Authorization APIs to CMS. To help assess the impact of our policies, we are proposing to collect API usage metrics. In addition, we are proposing to apply the existing interoperability requirements to small group market QHP issuers on the FF-SHOPs as impacted payers. To improve impacted payers' ability to exchange health information while continuing CMS's drive toward interoperability, we are proposing to require certain Health Level Seven (HL7[supreg]) Fast Healthcare Interoperability Resources (FHIR[supreg]) implementation guides (IGs) that are currently recommended. In addition, HHS is proposing to adopt the HL7 FHIR base standard and certain associated specifications and IGs as the Health Insurance Portability and Accountability Act of 1996 (hereinafter referred to as \"HIPAA\") (Pub. L. 104-191, enacted Aug. 21, 1996) standards for dental, professional, and institutional \"referral certification and authorization\" transactions and \"eligibility for a health plan\" transactions associated with prior authorization. We are proposing to add a definition for \"failure to report,\" which would allow CMS to impose a civil monetary penalty (CMP) on applicable manufacturers or applicable group purchasing organizations (GPOs) if those entities fail to grant CMS timely access to documents for the purposes of an audit. Finally, ONC is using this rulemaking to propose to adopt updated versions of certain health information technology (health IT) standards and specifications for HHS use, such as CMS's interoperability requirements, to support a more robust health IT infrastructure.","document_number":"2026-07205","html_url":"https://www.federalregister.gov/documents/2026/04/14/2026-07205/medicare-and-medicaid-programs-patient-protection-and-affordable-care-act-interoperability-standards","pdf_url":"https://www.govinfo.gov/content/pkg/FR-2026-04-14/pdf/2026-07205.pdf","public_inspection_pdf_url":"https://public-inspection.federalregister.gov/2026-07205.pdf?1775852111","publication_date":"2026-04-14","agencies":[{"raw_name":"DEPARTMENT OF HEALTH AND HUMAN SERVICES","name":"Health and Human Services Department","id":221,"url":"https://www.federalregister.gov/agencies/health-and-human-services-department","json_url":"https://www.federalregister.gov/api/v1/agencies/221","parent_id":null,"slug":"health-and-human-services-department"},{"raw_name":"Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services","name":"Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services","id":45,"url":"https://www.federalregister.gov/agencies/centers-for-medicare-medicaid-services","json_url":"https://www.federalregister.gov/api/v1/agencies/45","parent_id":221,"slug":"centers-for-medicare-medicaid-services"},{"raw_name":"Office of the Secretary"}],"excerpts":"notifications for value-based care and care coordination, health care resiliency and securing health care operations in a modern health care ecosystem, improving the implementation of payer API technology through testing and \n \n certification, using technology to manage step therapy, and prior authorization requirements for laboratory tests and durable medical equipment, prosthetics, orthotics, and supplies (DMEPOS) items.\n \n Electronic event notifications are valuable tools for coordinating care in the modern health care environment, and we are seeking"},{"title":"Medicare Program; Hospital Inpatient Prospective Payment Systems for Acute Care Hospitals (IPPS) and the Long-Term Care Hospital Prospective Payment System and Policy Changes and Fiscal Year (FY) 2027 Rates; Requirements for Quality Programs; and Other Policy Changes","type":"Proposed Rule","abstract":"This proposed rule would revise the Medicare hospital inpatient prospective payment systems (IPPS) for operating and capital- related costs of acute care hospitals; make changes relating to Medicare graduate medical education (GME) for teaching hospitals; update the payment policies and the annual payment rates for the Medicare prospective payment system (PPS) for inpatient hospital services provided by long-term care hospitals (LTCHs); update and make changes to requirements for certain quality programs; and make other policy-related changes.","document_number":"2026-07203","html_url":"https://www.federalregister.gov/documents/2026/04/14/2026-07203/medicare-program-hospital-inpatient-prospective-payment-systems-for-acute-care-hospitals-ipps-and","pdf_url":"https://www.govinfo.gov/content/pkg/FR-2026-04-14/pdf/2026-07203.pdf","public_inspection_pdf_url":"https://public-inspection.federalregister.gov/2026-07203.pdf?1775852113","publication_date":"2026-04-14","agencies":[{"raw_name":"DEPARTMENT OF HEALTH AND HUMAN SERVICES","name":"Health and Human Services Department","id":221,"url":"https://www.federalregister.gov/agencies/health-and-human-services-department","json_url":"https://www.federalregister.gov/api/v1/agencies/221","parent_id":null,"slug":"health-and-human-services-department"},{"raw_name":"Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services","name":"Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services","id":45,"url":"https://www.federalregister.gov/agencies/centers-for-medicare-medicaid-services","json_url":"https://www.federalregister.gov/api/v1/agencies/45","parent_id":221,"slug":"centers-for-medicare-medicaid-services"}],"excerpts":"for spending and quality of care during an inpatient stay or hospital outpatient procedure and for the 90 days following hospital discharge.
