Changes are Coming. Will You Be Ready?

Home Sleep Testing (HST) reimbursement is slated for a major overhaul, with changes to billing codes expected to go live on January 1, 2027. With final details from CMS expected later this year, this webinar focuses on insights and strategies to proactively prepare for the upcoming changes.

Fred Turkington, EnsoData’s head of product, explores the expected transition away from the legacy CPT code framework toward a new split-code system. Fred will break down the proposed complexity tiers and help sleep labs and providers prepare for the changes and understand their impact.
