Building a Scalable, Sustainable and Budget-Friendly Compliance Program
Alicia Shickle, President and CEO, ProCode Compliance Solutions LLC
Compliance programs are a must, but most available guidance is designed for large institutions with substantial resources, rather than small to medium-sized entities. Tailoring, or “right-sizing,” an effective compliance program for smaller organizations is crucial, and this presentation offers practical strategies for achieving that while accounting for their distinct operational constraints, including policies and procedures, compliance officer designation, effective training, and other core elements.

Boosting Revenue in 2026: Mastering Medicare’s Hidden Gems for Physicians and Non-Physician Practitioners
Corella Lumpkins, CHC, CPC, CPCO, CDEO, CPB, CPPM, CPC-I, CCS, CCS-P, Manager of Coding Compliance and Provider Education, Loudoun Medical Group PC
As Medicare reimbursement cuts threaten provider revenue, now is the time for medical practice administrators, including those managing non-physician practitioners (NPP), to seize every available billing opportunity. This dynamic session is designed for administrators working with both physicians and NPPs and will provide the essential tools to maximize reimbursements through Medicare’s complexity and advanced primary care management (APCM) add-on codes. This session will dive into the often-overlooked potential of add-on codes like G2211, G0545, G0559, G0556, G0557 and G0558. These codes can significantly combat the anticipated reductions in reimbursement rates — but only when applied effectively, whether billing directly for qualified health providers (QHP) or through the incident-to services model. This session empowers you to boost your bottom line by harnessing the full potential of Medicare's add-on codes, ensuring your NPPs and physicians are fairly compensated for the critical care they deliver.
1:40 p.m. – 1:55 p.m.
