Master OB/GYN Coding
Picture this: It’s January 4, 2027—the first Monday of the new billing year. Your waiting room is buzzing, clinicians are moving from patient to patient, and your billing team is processing the first wave of postpartum and global OB claims.
Everything seems normal. Until the rejection notifications start trickling in. Then, they turn into a flood. Suddenly, your reliable maternity care revenue stream hits a wall. The codes your clinicians documented and your billers submitted for years are suddenly throwing "invalid" and "missing modifier" errors. The schedule is backed up, your team is stressed, and your practice’s cash flow is taking an unexpected hit.
Why? Because while everyone was celebrating the new year, the guidelines for maternity care coding quietly shifted. And your practice wasn’t ready. AVAILABLE October 27, 2026

The biggest disruption to obstetric billing in over thirty years takes effect on January 1, 2027. The American Medical Association (AMA) is completely retiring the traditional global obstetric package. Familiar bundled codes are being permanently deleted. This shift changes attribution — how professional work is recognized and credited and creates an opportunity to report maternity care services in more detail. It will impact documentation, workflows, payer communication, revenue cycle management, and electronic health record templates. Obstetrical coding, billing, and clinical teams will need to be informed and ready to document and report these services properly.
If your clinic is not prepared for this transition, it faces immediate revenue drops and massive denial rates. This class gives you the tools, codes, and compliance strategies required to successfully navigate these historic changes.
Secure Your Practice's Financial Future
Do not let your clinic fall behind! Transitioning from a single bundled note to phase-level documentation requires immediate preparation. Become the irreplaceable revenue cycle expert your practice needs to thrive in 2027.
