CMS Chronic Care Management Best Practices for 2025

Presenter: Dr. Irina Koyfman

Description:

Did you know that CMS reimbursement rates for Chronic Care Management (CCM) have increased by nearly 50% since the program's inception in 2015? Despite this, many providers are still under the impression that CCM focuses on managing just two chronic conditions, rather than addressing the whole person. This misconception often prevents practices from fully leveraging CCM to improve patient outcomes and enhance care delivery.

In this webinar, we’ll explore how CCM has evolved into one of the most impactful programs in healthcare, driving better patient outcomes while offering significant financial opportunities for providers. You'll gain insights into CMS’s latest updates for 2025, including new billing codes, expanded services like Principal Care Management (PCM), and best practices for maximizing the program's benefits. Learn how to shift from a condition-focused approach to whole-person care, ensuring you meet CMS guidelines while delivering comprehensive, high-quality care.

Don’t miss this opportunity to discover strategies that can transform your practice and elevate patient care in 2025 and beyond!
