📅 Wednesday, November 18, 2026 · 2:00 PM Central (12:00 PM Pacific) · 2-hour live webinar (recording included)
CMS’s final rule publishes in November 2026 — the last checkpoint before the new codes go live on January 1, 2027. This is the action session: what changed from the proposed rule, what your billing team needs to update before go-live, and how to enter 2027 with a clean claim workflow and full confidence.
What You Will Learn
- What changed in the final rule — a clear comparison against the proposed values from Part 2
- Your go-live checklist — the specific billing system, documentation, and staff-training updates to complete before January 1, 2027
- Common first-claim mistakes — what we’re seeing trip up practices in the early weeks under similar past code transitions, and how to avoid them
