Medicare and Medicaid 2026 Reimbursement Requirements: Key Changes Affecting Personal Injury Lawyers
Welcome! You can now find all the expert-led CLE and CPE online webinars you trusted from Strafford on BARBRI.
About the Course
Introduction
This CLE webinar will review the 2026 updates and changes to Medicaid and Medicare reimbursement requirements and how new laws such as the One Big Beautiful Bill Act will affect the resolution of claims, compensation, and lawyers' duties and obligations in personal injury cases.
Description
Personal injury lawyers need to be aware of the many significant changes to Medicare and Medicaid reimbursement requirements that take effect in 2026. Our speakers will review key issues such as Medicare Secondary Payer (MSP) reporting requirements, audits and enforcement procedures, changes to payment policies, and heightened scrutiny of reporting.
Listen as our speakers discuss what attorneys will need to do differently in 2026 to avoid potential pitfalls caused by these changes.
