Computed from the files we parsed for the Price Atlas (the catalog v3 procedure codes we read, not the whole file). Checks: (1) the hospital lists the file in /cms-hpt.txt; (2) the file downloads and follows the CMS template; (3) template version 2.2 or later; (4) updated within the last 12 months; (5) most payer-specific rates are dollar amounts; (6) percent/algorithm rates carry a dollar estimate (v2 estimated amount or v3 median allowed); (7) v3.0 allowed-amount fields (median, 10th/90th percentile, count) are posted. Hospitals we could not read carry a status (not found, robots.txt, bot protection, time-out...): what OUR crawler saw with an honest User-Agent while obeying robots.txt, not proof of non-compliance.
