LIVE WEBINAR
On Friday, November 28, the Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services (CMS) released the home health final rule for calendar year (CY) 2026 confirming an overall 1.3% reduction in aggregate Medicare payments — an estimated $220 million shift from CY 2025. While this is good news for home health agencies compared to the 6.4% reduction that was previously proposed, the need for patient and industry advocacy persists.
Join home health regulatory expert and advocate Cindy Campbell, MHA-Healthcare Informatics, BSN, RN, CCS-HH for a timely webinar designed to help your home health organization move more confidently into 2026. Campbell will break down the CY 2026 final rule and share strategic opportunities your team can use to strengthen agency operations, reimbursement readiness, and care delivery.
