The Medicare Physician Fee Schedule (PFS) is a key component of the Medicare payment system. It sets the rates for services provided by physicians and other healthcare professionals under Medicare Part B. Established by the Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services (CMS), the PFS is updated annually and outlines how healthcare providers are reimbursed for services, including office visits, surgical procedures, and diagnostic tests.

The webinar will cover adjustments to the Medicare PFS, focusing on shifts in Relative Value Units (RVUs), the conversion factor, and how these changes will impact provider reimbursement and practice sustainability.

Each year, CMS publishes a final rule for the next year’s PFS, outlining any changes in reimbursement rates, coding updates, and new or revised regulations.

In recent years, updates to the PFS have focused on shifting towards value-based care, promoting telehealth services, and addressing disparities in reimbursement across different types of providers and services.

Understanding the Medicare Physician Fee Schedule is essential for healthcare providers, as it directly impacts revenue cycles, practice operations, and patient care delivery. Navigating these changes requires a clear understanding of the updates and actionable strategies to ensure compliance, optimize reimbursement, and enhance patient care.

The 2025 rule introduces significant changes to payment systems, quality reporting requirements, and compliance measures, all aimed at advancing the shift toward value-based care. For providers, understanding these changes is essential not only for financial sustainability but also for maintaining high standards of patient care in an increasingly complex system.

With updates to the Medicare Physician Fee Schedule (PFS), telehealth policies, and other significant updates,  the 2025 Final Rule will impact nearly every aspect of healthcare operations. Failing to adapt to these changes could result in compliance risks, financial penalties, and missed opportunities to maximize reimbursement.

The PFS plays an important role in ensuring that physicians and healthcare providers receive fair compensation for the care they provide while helping to control Medicare spending. It impacts millions of healthcare providers and influences how physicians manage their practices, allocate resources, and deliver care.

For patients, the PFS can affect the availability and accessibility of services, as providers may adjust their practices based on reimbursement rates.
