SHARE OF EACH FILE CARRYING A PAYER-SPECIFIC RATE
Zero of 204,411 rows carry this year's required percentile figures
The CY2026 update requires posting the median, 10th and 90th percentile allowed amounts, sourced from 835 remittance data, alongside every payer-specific rate. Lewis County General Hospital's file has the columns for these figures, but none of the 204,411 rows have a value in them.
The file itself is hosted off a Google Drive share link, not the hospital's own domain
cms-hpt.txt points to drive.google.com/uc?export=download&id=... rather than a file served from lcgh.net or a dedicated vendor host. It resolves and downloads correctly today; it's simply an unusual way to host a file CMS expects to remain reliably reachable at a fixed address.
The harder half of the file is already done
98% of the 204,411 rows carry a real negotiated dollar amount rather than a percentage or algorithm placeholder. That part of the filing, arguably the harder data-collection problem, is essentially complete.
Is the percentile field genuinely unpopulated, or does an internal report exist that simply hasn't been published in the machine-readable file yet?
If the 835-derived figures exist internally, this is a publishing gap, not a data gap, and is a much faster fix.
Is the Google Drive-hosted file the permanent, intended address, or a placeholder from when the file was first stood up?
A share-link host is one policy change or one expired permission away from silently breaking the address CMS has on file.
