New Webinar: “2027 Maternity Care Coding Changes: Your Questions Answered”

After PYA’s first webinar on the 2027 maternity care coding changes, attendees submitted a long list of questions. Many focused on documentation and medical necessity, labor management services, provider attribution, teaching physician requirements, reimbursement, and how the changes will work in practice.

In this follow-up session, PYA Principals Angie Caldwell, Deuce Lukemeyer, and Lee Ann Odom, along with Manager Kimberly Campbell, will work through the most common questions and share practical considerations for organizations preparing to move from global maternity care reporting to a phase-based structure. The discussion will focus on documentation, care models, compliance requirements, reimbursement, and the workflow changes organizations may need to consider as they prepare for implementation.

At the conclusion of this webinar, participants will be able to:

• Describe documentation and medical necessity considerations under the 2027 maternity care coding structure.
• Identify provider attribution, care model, and workflow challenges under phase-based maternity care reporting.
• Evaluate how labor management services and teaching physician requirements affect documentation, reporting, and compliance.
• Assess potential reimbursement, payer, and compensation implications of moving away from global maternity care reporting.
• Develop implementation strategies that support documentation, operational, and compliance readiness.
