Join HCAM and Jon Lanczak of Plante Moran for a review of the FY27 DCW program changes, the latest MDHHS guidance, and what these updates mean for your facility. Presenters will walk through the reimbursement methodology, employee wage requirements, reporting expectations, implementation considerations, and key questions providers should be addressing before October 1.
