The Physician Advisor Forum: Aligning on Status, Stays and Stewardship



UM Operations Committee

Thursday, February 12, 2026 | 7-8:30PM ET

Have you ever wondered what ABN, HINN and NOTA mean and when to use them? How about medical necessity and custodial care? What is the purpose of MDRs and how do you manage length of stay? If patients don’t have medical necessity, do you have a strategy to help negotiate challenging discharges? If there is medical necessity, how are you addressing denials? Join us for an enlightening discussion as we walk through definitions, stakeholders, and strategies at various hospitals in our efforts to evolve the physician advisor role.
