CMS released the 2026 Final Rule right on time, Friday, Halloween, 4:30 pm. They love a holiday rule release and we love being up-to-date with CMS policy. The agency finalized many of its proposals: variable conversion factor, applying an “efficiency adjustment” to many non-time-based codes, lowered payments for skin substitutes, telehealth updates (but not the updates we were hoping for).
