The Upcoming Censis Technologies Users Conference: It’s Time to Get Connected Again

Censis Technologies is hosting a users conference aimed at bringing sterile processing leaders together to close the gap between emerging innovation and day-to-day industry practice. The event provides a forum for professionals to share knowledge, explore new technologies, and reconnect with peers across the sterile processing community. It reflects a broader need for in-person connection in a field that often operates in isolation.

Despite its rapid technological advancements, the Sterile Processing industry faces a challenge: professionals often feel disconnected. The upcoming Censis Technologies Users Conference (CtUC) Connect 2023, scheduled from September 10-12 at the Omni Nashville Hotel, seeks to address this issue. A recent survey highlighted that 80% of professionals believe in-person conferences, like CtUC 2023, are essential for building meaningful connections and staying updated on industry best practices.

Direct-to-consumer telehealth raises spending, even as ASC investment surges

Direct-to-consumer telehealth raises spending, even as ASC investment surges

A Health Affairs analysis of commercial claims data (2011–13) found 12% of direct-to-consumer telehealth visits replaced visits to other providers and 88% represented new utilization, with net annual spending on acute respiratory illness increasing $45 per telehealth user. Separately, MobiHealthNews reported on August 31, 2026, via a HIMSSCast episode, that Erik Tellefson of Capital One said ambulatory surgery centers “represent one of the clearest growth structures in American healthcare.”

  • 01The most actionable benchmark for finance teams evaluating DTC telehealth is substitution rate, not visit growth. Health Affairs measured 12% substitution and 88% new utilization in commercial claims for acute respiratory illness.
  • 02The $45 per-user net annual spend increase in the Health Affairs analysis is small enough to hide in PMPM reporting but large enough to matter at scale, and it should be stress-tested against virtual-visit eligibility rules and repeat-use patterns.

HFMA’s new chair is a hospital CFO as Medicare reporting gets more detailed and revenue cycle work gets more technical

HFMA’s new chair is a hospital CFO as Medicare reporting gets more detailed and revenue cycle work gets more technical

HFMA named Corewell Health CFO Matthew E. Cox as its national chair effective June 1, 2026, while elevating revenue cycle and reimbursement leaders to its board, according to HFMA’s GlobeNewswire announcement. The association’s own coverage of CMS’s FY 2027 IPPS/LTCH PPS final rule summary and new Medicare cost-reporting requirements such as Worksheet S-12 indicates a compliance workload that is increasingly data- and documentation-heavy for hospital finance and reporting teams. In parallel, HFMA’s certification catalog, including the Certified Hospital Cost Report Specialist (CHCRS) and Certified Specialist Payment & Reimbursement (CSPR), points to how health systems are professionalizing the skill sets needed to operationalize reimbursement policy changes. For operators, the practical consequence shows up in staffing models, audit readiness, and the data plumbing needed to produce defensible cost reports and faster revenue cycle decisions.

  • 01HFMA’s board slate now visibly includes roles that control the work: a system CFO (Corewell Health) and a chief revenue officer overseeing $7 billion in patient revenue at Orlando Health, per GlobeNewswire. That’s a signal that cost reporting and revenue cycle execution are board-level concerns, not back-office chores.
  • 02Medicare cost reporting is moving toward more granular worksheets and documentation, and each new CMS reporting requirement becomes a data-integration project before it becomes a policy memo, per HFMA’s reporting on Worksheet S-12 and its FY 2027 IPPS/LTCH PPS coverage.
  • 03HFMA’s CHCRS, CRCR, and CSPR credentials provide a concrete way to benchmark internal capability: if cost report preparation, managed care contract terms, and prior auth workflows live in different teams, credentialing can reveal where handoffs are breaking down.

FDA QMSR ties supplier contracts to inspection prep

FDA QMSR ties supplier contracts to inspection prep

FDA’s Quality Management System Regulation (QMSR) took effect Feb. 2, 2026, incorporating ISO 13485:2016 into 21 CFR Part 820 and shifting inspections to a process-based model under Compliance Program 7382.850, according to MD+DI. That change is starting to show up outside the quality department: medical device OEMs are being pushed to spell out documentation, audit support, and change-control responsibilities in contract manufacturing agreements, as Medical Design and Outsourcing described. Two recent partnership moves, Ratio Therapeutics expanding radiopharmaceutical manufacturing with PharmaLogic in Idaho Falls and Menicon shifting U.S. Rose K manufacturing access to three partners after concluding a prior arrangement, illustrate how multi-party supply chains now need contract terms that map directly to integrated QMS evidence. The operational consequence is simple: under CP 7382.850, a complaint, supplier nonconformance, or process change can pull investigators across CAPA, risk management, purchasing, and design records in one thread, so contracts and quality records have to be built to travel together.

  • 01Under FDA CP 7382.850, inspection risk increasingly sits in the “handoffs” between complaint handling, CAPA, supplier controls, and the Risk Management File, so quality evidence has to be assembled end-to-end, not by department.
  • 02For OEMs outsourcing manufacturing, the most useful contract test in 2026 is whether each clause produces inspectable artifacts, who owns them, where they live, and how fast they can be produced during an audit.
  • 03Multi-partner manufacturing models, like Menicon’s three-partner Rose K availability and Ratio’s capacity expansion with PharmaLogic, raise the bar on configuration control, supplier risk classification, and change notification across sites.
