CMSCG Academy
Education, Webinars & Speaking Engagements
CMSCG's education programs come from the same place as our consulting work — direct, current, hands-on experience with the regulatory environment our clients operate in every day. Whether we're presenting at a state association conference, leading a webinar on an emerging compliance topic, or developing online courses for post-acute providers, the goal is the same: practical knowledge that people can actually use.
Speaking Engagements
2026 Speaking Engagement Schedule
CMSCG's consultants present regularly at industry conferences and association events — sharing practical, experience-based insights on survey readiness, regulatory compliance, quality improvement, and the clinical and operational topics that matter most to post-acute providers.
CMSCG is a frequent and trusted presenter for NYSHFA-NYSCAL — the New York State Health Facilities Association and the New York State Center for Assisted Living — one of the region's leading long-term care industry associations. We are proud to be a go-to resource for NYSHFA-NYSCAL's education programming and look forward to continuing that partnership throughout 2026 and beyond.
Plate to Care Plan: Dietary's Place on the Interdisciplinary Team
Session 4 of the NYSCAL Assisted Living Interdisciplinary Team Series. Exploring how dietary management connects to the broader care planning process and what meaningful IDT participation looks like from a dietary perspective.
The Hidden Elephant in Your Nursing Home – Complaint Surveys
Complaint survey deficiencies stay on your record for three years and directly affect your 5-Star Rating, enforcement exposure, and public perception. This session covers how complaint citations translate into penalty points and what complaint readiness actually looks like in practice.
Risk-Based Surveys: What You Need to Know
CMS's Risk-Based Survey process launched nationwide September 8, 2026 — and only approximately 12% of nursing homes currently qualify. Join CMSCG for a live webinar covering the full qualifying and disqualifying criteria, what the RBS means for your survey preparation, and how to assess where your facility stands.
Program Details to Be Announced
CMS Compliance Group will have multiple team members presenting at the New York Association of Long Term Care Administrators Education Day. Session details and registration information coming soon.
2026 Survey Trends & Tips
A year-end look at what the 2026 survey data tells us — national and regional citation trends, what's changed during the year, and what facilities should be focused on heading into 2027. Practical, data-driven, and directly applicable to your survey preparation planning.
CMSCG is booked through December 2026 with additional speaking engagements currently being confirmed. Check back for updates — or contact us to inquire about having CMSCG present at your event or conference.

Courses in Development
CMSCG Academy's online course library is currently in development. Courses will cover the regulatory topics post-acute providers need most — accessible on demand, developed by CMSCG's interdisciplinary team of experienced compliance consultants.
Have a Course Request?
CMSCG develops education programming around what providers actually need. If there's a topic you'd like to see covered — a new CMS rule, a challenging survey area, a quality improvement question, or a department-specific issue — contact us. We welcome input from providers as we build our course library.
