2026 ICD-10-CMS and Grouper Updates: Safeguarding Reimbursement Webinar
SESSION OVERVIEW
This 3-hour session provides a comprehensive overview of the FY 2026 ICD-10-CM code updates and the CY 2026 proposed changes to the PDGM grouper. With 487 new codes, 38 revisions, and 28 deletions, the ICD-10-CM update introduces significant changes that affect diagnosis coding, comorbidity adjustments, and clinical groupings. Participants will explore how these updates intersect with the proposed recalibration of PDGM case-mix weights, comorbidity subgroups, and functional scoring. Participants will explore changes to clinical groupings, comorbidity adjustments, and functional scoring, while working through real-world scenarios using the PDGM grouper. Designed for clinicians, coders, and administrators, this session will strengthen your ability to code accurately, optimize reimbursement, and ensure compliance in 2025 and beyond.
