      <title>WiHPCA Webinar Series – ABCs of Audits (July 28, 2026)</title>
      <description>&lt;p&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;Hospice providers face an increasingly complex audit landscape, with a growing number of oversight agencies, review contractors, and regulatory requirements impacting operations, reimbursement, and compliance. From ADRs and UPICs to SMRCs, OIG investigations, and Medicare Medical Reviews, the alphabet soup of audit-related acronyms can be overwhelming.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;Join &lt;strong&gt;Bryan Nowicki, Partner at Husch Blackwell&lt;/strong&gt;, for an informative and practical session designed to help hospice leaders navigate the intricacies of the audit process. Bryan will break down the key organizations and terminology hospices need to know, explain the purpose and scope of various audit activities, and highlight common areas that draw regulatory scrutiny.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;Don’t miss out on&amp;nbsp;WiHPCA’s next meeting with the WI Department of Health Services’ Division of Quality Assurance (DQA).&amp;nbsp;The meeting will be held virtually and is open to all WiHPCA members and hospice professionals across Wisconsin.&amp;nbsp;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;The purpose of the DQA meetings is to create an opportunity for hospice and palliative care professionals to build and maintain a strong working relationship with a key state regulatory agency that oversees our industry. For members who have not had an opportunity to attend previous meetings, they provide members with valuable regulatory information and updates, as well as a unique chance to engage DQA staff, ask questions, and request guidance. If you would like to submit a question to DQA staff in advance, please&amp;nbsp;&lt;a href="https://form.jotform.com/210275751204043"&gt;&lt;strong&gt;CLICK HERE&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/a&gt;.&amp;nbsp;&lt;/p&gt;
