MMA’s Guide to 2023 RxDC Reporting

Transparency requirement

The 2023 RxDC reporting is due on June 1, 2024. There is no current extension for this despite June 1st falling on a Saturday this year. Portions of this guide are generally relevant for all employers, but the full guide is most relevant for employers that may have to complete certain RxDC reporting themselves. This may occur if an employer is unable to fully delegate reporting to its insurers, TPAs, or other third party vendors. For example, an insurer or TPA may decline to incorporate certain data from one or more carved-out vendors, and the carved-out vendors may be unable or unwilling to report that data themselves.

Part 2RxDC Reporting Overview – This is an overview of the purpose for RxDC reporting, which plans are subject to it, and the process to delegate reporting to insurers/TPAs/PBMs (including their data surveys).

Part 3Employer Submission of Plan Information – This is a brief overview of the HIOS registration process, when an employer must register, and where to upload information.

Part 4The P2 and D1 Files – This is a discussion of the P2 and D1 RxDC files and how to complete them, although it is not intended to address every possible question an individual may have. If an employer must report any plan information, the P2/D1 combination is the most likely scenario.
