2025 Billing and Coding for Palliative Care: Physician Fee Schedule Updates

Join us as Phil Rodgers, MD, and Chris Jones, MD, MBA, provide their expert (and engaging!) takes on the updates to the Centers for Medicare & Medicare Services (CMS) Physician Fee Schedule for 2025. This discussion will revisit some of the milestone changes from the last few cycles—including their implications for the care of people living with serious illness, and strategies to ensure that palliative care teams are billing effectively—and explore new opportunities presented by the 2025 PFS.

At the end of this presentation, attendees will be able to:

1. Describe palliative care-relevant updates in the 2025 Physician Fee Schedule
2. Select appropriate codes to optimize the palliative care program’s billing strategy
3. Describe the impact of the 2024 PFS changes on palliative care billing
