Overview

This webinar session reviews how to help Health Centers update their clinical documentation, professional coding, and medical billing processes related to CMS’s 2026 updates and other ongoing issues and challenges that we face. It pays particular attention to how clinical and revenue cycle staff can work together to balance an HC’s clinical and business goals through proper application of the CPT, HCPCS-II, and ICD-10-CM code sets.  All content is presented from the perspective of a CMS-approved Federally Qualified Health Center (FQHC) with a focus on details found within the 2026 CMS Medicare Physician Fee Schedule and potential Congressional actions throughout 2026.

  • Apply current CPT®, HCPCS Level II, and ICD-10-CM coding principles to common and evolving FQHC clinical scenarios to support compliant reporting and appropriate reimbursement.
  • Anticipate potential operational and compliance challenges arising from CMS updates or Congressional actions and describe practical strategies FQHCs can use to adapt workflows and internal controls.
