QPP 2026 PFS & QPP Final Rule*
Webinar Date: December 16, 2025 @12pm

CMS released the highly anticipated 2026 Physician Fee Schedule (PFS) Final Rule on Nov 3rd — and the changes are significant.

From new Quality Payment Program (QPP) requirements to critical updates impacting MIPS Value Pathways (MVPs) and Alternative Payment Models (APMs), eligible clinicians will see meaningful shifts in reporting, participation, and performance expectations.

One of the most notable updates is the introduction of the new Ambulatory Specialty Model (ASM)—inclusion of specialists in outpatient and ambulatory care settings. ASM is designed to expand value-based care opportunities, improve quality measurement alignment for specialists, and offer new pathways to succeed in advanced payment arrangements.

OUR TEAM OF EXPERTS WILL WALK YOU THROUGH:
• Key QPP updates
every organization must understand
What’s changing within MVPs and APM participation
• How the Ambulatory Specialty Model will affect specialists and reporting options
Action steps to prepare for 2026
