Description
                                    The How CMS Will Affect RCM With Prior Authorization Changes panel will examine the upcoming changes to prior authorization processes introduced by the Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services (CMS) and their impact on revenue cycle management (RCM). Panelists will explore how these changes aim to streamline the approval process, reduce administrative burden, and improve payment timelines. They will also discuss the potential challenges healthcare organizations may face as they adapt to these new regulations, including the integration of technology and updates to workflows. Insights will be provided on best practices for managing these transitions and mitigating risks to financial performance.
