    CY 2027 Orthopedic Medicare Exposure Diagnostic

    Proposed CY 2027 Medicare Physician Fee Schedule changes can alter professional-fee economics, same-day service economics, joint-replacement reimbursement, site-of-service decisions, and operating margin. CMS proposals are presented separately from third-party estimates; for example, the OrthoForum's approximate 20% hip and knee estimate is a third-party projection, not a CMS figure.

    Who it's for

    Independent orthopedic groups and physician enterprises with meaningful Medicare procedural volume.

    Based on

    CMS CY 2027 PFS proposed policy, validated CMS reference data, site-of-service payment mechanics, and the organization's own procedural and payer mix.

    Why it matters

    Professional-fee and site-of-service changes can move margin in different directions across settings, so exposure has to be modeled against actual case mix rather than headline estimates.

    What we analyze

    Professional-fee exposure; the same-day payment provision; affected service families; office, ASC, and HOPD operating implications; three scenarios; behavioral-response sensitivity.

    What you receive

    Executive summary, CPT-level exposure analysis where supported by validated reference data, site-of-service analysis, scenario report, and a board-ready presentation. Final modeling precision depends on client CPT mix and validated CMS reference data.

    Format

    Executive exposure diagnostic.
