Do we have a provider facing RTBC standard defined in FHIR?

What is RTBC?
Lloyd McKenzie (Oct 22 2021 at 16:51):
Do you mean "Real-time benefit check"?
Bapi Behera (Oct 27 2021 at 15:50):
Yes @Lloyd McKenzie From Carin prospective it's RTPBC
Lloyd McKenzie (Oct 27 2021 at 16:35):
I think that's supposed to be handled by NCPDP in the U.S.? Da Vinci is doing some work on pharmacy formularies, but that's not quite the same thing. In principle HL7 could take this on outside the U.S. space, but I'm not aware of anyone who's done so. @Paul Knapp @Melva Peters ?

Hi @Bapi Behera I don't know the exact status, but my understanding is that the NCPDP RTPB standard is on a track to be named by CMS for provider use in the US
Frank McKinney (Oct 27 2021 at 17:00):
I believe the appropriations act for FY 2021 instructs HHS to review the NCPDP RTPB for future naming
