May 21 | Preventing Medical Denials Before They Start

Live Webinar

Thursday, May 21, 2026, 2:00 – 3:00 PM CST

Join us as we deep dive into CMS’s proposed 2027 Medicare Advantage and Part D updates. These changes introduce new limits on chart review diagnoses, updates to CMS-HCC and RxHCC models, and increased scrutiny on payment accuracy. 

As a result, health plans and providers will face growing pressure to ensure accurate, encounter-based documentation and coding. In this session, industry experts will break down what’s changing, what it means for your organization, and how to strengthen documentation, coding, and data practices to support compliant, accurate reimbursement in a more demanding regulatory environment.
