2027 CPT® Advanced Specialty Updates Boot Camp

Four Focused Specialty Updates in One Practical Two-Hour Program

TOTAL Duration: 120 Minutes

Format: Four focused 30-minute sessions

Level: Intermediate to Advanced

Speaker: R. Sharma

Prepare Your Organization for the 2027 CPT® Changes Before They Disrupt Coding, Documentation and Reimbursement

The 2027 CPT® code set contains 453 editorial changes—including 299 new codes, 74 revised codes and 80 deletions. However, preparing for the new year requires much more than reviewing a list of code numbers.

Healthcare organizations must determine which changes affect their specialties, understand how revised guidelines alter code selection, update EHR and charge-capture workflows, educate providers, and distinguish CPT® reporting requirements from Medicare and commercial-payer coverage and payment policies.

The four specialties featured in this program show how differently the 2027 changes arrive.

Long-established coding structures are being replaced, new procedure and classification distinctions are being introduced, and documentation that supported a service in 2026 may not be sufficient—or may lead to a different code—in 2027.

This intensive two-hour boot camp brings together four high-impact specialty updates in one practical program. Each 30-minute session will focus on the changes most likely to affect day-to-day coding, documentation, charge capture, claims and reimbursement beginning January 1, 2027.

Rather than overwhelming attendees with every editorial revision, the program will explain what changed, why it matters, where errors are most likely to occur and what organizations should update before the new codes take effect.

Learning Objectives

After completing this boot camp, attendees will be able to:

  • Identify the most consequential 2027 CPT® changes affecting the four featured specialties
  • Explain how channel-based and device-based classification determine sleep study code selection
  • Recognize why the new unattended sleep testing family requires relearning rather than crosswalking
  • Distinguish transrectal, transperineal, fusion-guided and in-bore prostate biopsy reporting
  • Identify when targeted lesion add-on reporting applies
  • Recognize the urologic genomic, molecular and AI-supported diagnostic changes and their pathways
  • Identify the new coronary intervention, structural heart and heart failure device reporting options
  • Explain when remote monitoring and AI-supported assessment are separately reportable
  • Identify the neuromodulation and implanted device management changes in pain management
  • Recognize what Category III reporting means for coverage and payment
  • Recognize when new, revised or deleted codes require EHR, fee-schedule or charge-capture updates
  • Distinguish CPT® code availability from Medicare or commercial-payer coverage and payment
  • Detect documentation weaknesses that could cause denials, undercoding or compliance exposure
  • Build a practical implementation plan before January 1, 2027

What Attendees Will Gain

Attendees will receive a focused, practical understanding of the 2027 changes most likely to affect their work. The program is designed to help participants move beyond code memorization and understand the operational consequences of each update.

 

Participants will gain:

  • A concise explanation of four high-impact specialty updates
  • Practical guidance for applying new and revised reporting structures
  • Greater confidence identifying deleted codes and replacement pathways
  • A clear method for handling restructured code families where no direct crosswalk exists
  • Documentation checkpoints for approach, guidance and lesion-level procedural reporting
  • Working familiarity with molecular, genomic and AI-supported diagnostic pathways
  • A clearer understanding of bundling, component reporting and payer-policy risks
  • Action steps for updating internal systems and workflows
  • A framework for reducing denials, rework, missed charges and compliance exposure
  • A January 1 readiness checklist for coding and revenue-cycle teams

Important Questions This Boot Camp Will Answer

  • Which 2027 CPT® changes require immediate action?
  • What replaces the deleted unattended sleep study codes, and why is there no simple crosswalk?
  • How do recording channels and device type determine sleep study code selection?
  • Does our sleep testing equipment support the studies we intend to report?
  • How does biopsy approach change code selection under the new prostate structure?
  • When is targeted lesion add-on reporting appropriate?
  • Which templates, forms and charge workflows may need to be rebuilt?
  • How should urology practices report genomic, molecular and AI-supported diagnostic services?
  • When is a precision medicine service reported through a PLA code rather than Category I?
  • How do the new drug-coated balloon codes relate to existing coronary interventions?
  • What changes when structural heart services move from Category III to Category I?
  • When is remote monitoring separately reportable in heart failure and pain management?
  • Which neuromodulation services remain in Category III, and what does that mean for payment?
  • What is the difference between having a CPT® code and obtaining payer coverage?
  • What should organizations complete before January 1, 2027?

Prepare Now for January 1, 2027

The 2027 transition will affect codes, guidelines, documentation, systems and reimbursement workflows across multiple specialties. Discovering those effects only after claims begin to deny can lead to costly corrections and unnecessary disruption.

Join this 2027 CPT® Advanced Specialty Updates Boot Camp for four focused, expert-led sessions that will help your team understand the changes, prioritize implementation work and enter the new coding year with greater confidence.
