BlueAccessSM Tools Can Help Groups Report PCORI Fee Information
Self-funded groups, as well as employers who provide HRAs and some FSAs, need to understand how they can report and pay the Patient-Centered Outcomes Research (PCORI) fee. BlueCross has existing reports within our Interactive Reporting system that may help groups report PCORI fees.
