          <text>&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Hospital and ASC Price Transparency Act of 2023&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;This bill requires Medicare hospitals and ambulatory surgical centers to publish their prices.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Specifically, hospitals and ambulatory surgical centers must publish pricing information for at least 300 shoppable services designated by the Centers for Medicare &amp;amp; Medicaid Services (CMS), including the gross charge and discounted cash price. The CMS must establish the method and manner of publication; hospitals and ambulatory surgical centers that have price estimator tools are deemed to be in compliance with the bill's requirements if the tool meets certain specified criteria.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Hospitals and ambulatory surgical centers are subject to civil penalties for noncompliance. The CMS must publish information about the status of each hospital and ambulatory surgical center's compliance.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;The bill provides funds for FY2024 to implement these requirements.&lt;/p&gt;</text>
