For "standard" group plans from a Payer, what should go into the Plan id, plan id type, and plant name in the json file?

[SatyaKomatineni]

Looking at the JSON

say I have a standard plan called "5060", a PPO plan, offered by "Payer1" (EIN: 444444) and it is offered to 1000 groups.

plan-id = (444444) EIN??? of the payer? if so xxxxxx (because no HIOS number)
plan-id-type = EIN (One of EIN or HIOS)
Plann-name= 5060
{ other data}

#another plan
plan-id = (444444) (same EIN)
plan-id-type = EIN (One of EIN or HIOS)
Plann-name= 5061 (assuming another standard plan)

Is it ok that plan ids are the same (because of EIN) for different plan names???

on the other hand if EIN is to represent the groups, then why am I repeating it 1000 times the same data?

Appreciate you looking into this.

Thanks
Satya
