Speaker: Martha Kelso

This session reveals smart strategies to boost revenue, streamline operations, and keep your practice thriving, despite recent changes to reimbursement. Attendees will walk away with actionable insights to grow sustainably without compromising patient care. 

Speaker: Dr. Thomas Serena

In this session, Dr. Serena explains the key findings of the CAMPs evidence consensus document published in IJTR.

Speaker: Moira Sykstus

Regulatory compliance has long been the foundation of defensible wound care—but today, it is no longer enough. In this session, we examine the escalating enforcement environment surrounding skin substitute therapies and the profound consequences for wound care practices nationwide. Drawing from real‑world audit activity, this presentation explores how retrospective enforcement, aggressive extrapolation, and payment recoupments are occurring even when providers meet coverage, documentation, and medical necessity standards. Attendees will gain insight into how audit actions are increasingly bypassing meaningful due process, leaving practices financially exposed long before appeals are resolved—and in some cases, forcing closures before adjudication ever occurs.

This program reframes the current audit landscape as not just a compliance challenge, but a practice survival issue, highlighting the disconnect between regulatory intent and operational reality. Participants will leave with a clearer understanding of emerging audit risks, why traditional compliance strategies may fail under current enforcement models, and what proactive steps leaders must consider for protecting clinical autonomy, financial viability, and patient access to advanced wound therapies. Ideal for: executives, medical directors, compliance leaders, wound care providers, and revenue cycle professionals navigating skin substitute utilization in today’s enforcement‑driven environment.

Cellular, acellular, and matrix-like products (CAMPs) have rapidly expanded the therapeutic armamentarium of the modern plastic surgeon. These products promise improved wound healing, tissue regeneration, and aesthetic and reconstructive outcomes. However, alongside their growing popularity lies ongoing debate regarding their safety, efficacy, regulation, and appropriate clinical use. This talk examines CAMPs as both a potential friend and foe in plastic surgery.  

Speaker: Dr. Abigail Chaffin

Through clinical examples and evidence-based discussion, this presentation will examine where CAMPs integrate into the reconstructive ladder, how they can shorten the reconstructive ladder and help avoid more invasive procedures, and when they meaningfully improve outcomes versus add cost or complexity. This session aims to help surgeons thoughtfully incorporate CAMPs into modern practice while preserving sound surgical principles and patient-centered care. 

Panel: Dr. Michael Desvigne, Dr. Abigail Chaffin, Dr. Mark Suski, Dr Daniel Kapp

Moderator: Dr. Thomas Davenport

This panel discussion brings together leading plastic surgeons to address the fundamental questions surrounding CAMPs: Who should be using them, what products are appropriate for specific indications, whythey should be chosen over traditional reconstructive options, and when their use is truly justified.
