2026 Cost Trends Hearing Testimony
Each year, the HPC calls for written pre-filed testimony to inform the hearing. The pre-filed testimony affords the HPC and the Office of the Attorney General (AGO), on behalf of the public, an opportunity to engage with a broad range of Massachusetts health care market participants.
Pre-filed testimony is required from health care providers, hospitals, and payers as well as pharmaceutical manufacturers, pharmacy benefit managers (PBMs), significant equity investors, real estate investment trusts (REITs), and management services organizations (MSOs).
This webpage will be updated periodically as submissions are received. In the table below, requests for pre-filed testimony are linked in the "Entity Type" column and submissions are linked in the "Entity" column. If you have any questions regarding pre-filed or in-person testimony, please contact [email protected].
