Important filing distinction

Federal ACA submission does not necessarily satisfy a separate Rhode Island reporting obligation. Confirm which individuals and coverage records must be reported to the state.

Before submitting a file

  1. Identify the reporting entity and applicable coverage year.
  2. Compare columns against the official Rhode Island flat-file instructions.
  3. Verify covered individuals, months of coverage, and identification fields.
  4. Confirm the portal deadline and submission acknowledgement.
