Wyoming Health Care Pricing Transparency Act.

HB 292, the Wyoming Health Care Pricing Transparency Act, requires health insurers to provide aggregated claims data to large group purchasers of private health insurance plans (like employers with 50+ employees or multi-employer groups) twice yearly. This data includes costs for drugs, services, provider charges, and patient demographics, in searchable electronic format compliant with federal privacy laws. Insurers face $10,000 quarterly penalties for failing to provide the data, and strict rules prevent misuse or unauthorized disclosure of the information. The bill directly affects insurers, large employers buying group health plans, and healthcare providers whose costs are included in the data. It does not apply to government health programs like Medicaid or certain federally regulated employee benefit plans.
