We had such a great patient advocacy session at the Wound Care Collaborative Community Summit this morning.

This discussion placed a powerful spotlight on the patient voice and it couldn’t be more clear:
Patient perspectives and lived experiences must be embedded in everything we do.

Hearing patients share their journeys was both humbling and inspiring. Their stories remind us why advancing wound care is not just a clinical priority, but a human one.

Fantastic job by Narendra R. Patel, DPM, FACFAS Wendy Winckelbach Dana Rigdon and the entire The Midwest Foot and Ankle Conference planning team. The 2026 agenda was incredibly well-rounded and thoughtfully curated.

I was honored to share the stage with friends and colleagues Dr. Loan Lam & David B. Alper, DPM, FFPM RCPS (Glasg). The DFU Bingo session i led with the Podiatric Assistants was another highlight.

I walked away with many new connections and cherished moments with longtime friends. Until next time, Chicago—thanks for the energy, insights, and camaraderie!

🚨 New Preliminary Position Paper on CAMPs Wastage + 2026 CMS PFS Updates 🚨

I’m proud to share the preliminary outline of an important new position paper addressing CAMPs wastage in light of the 2026 CMS Physician Fee Schedule. As CMS reclassifies CAMPs as incident‑to‑supply, clinicians across the country are facing real uncertainty around documentation, wastage definitions, and appropriate product use.

To ensure these challenges are met with clarityand grounded in real-world wound care practice a group of dedicated colleagues came together to develop clinical, operational, and policy-focused recommendations. I’m incredibly grateful for the thoughtful input and collaboration from this expert group.

These issues directly impact patient access, clinician workflow, and reimbursement stability. It is essential that clinicians in the field lead the way in defining appropriate CAMPs administration.

The full position document is currently in development and will be published later this year. For now, I’m pleased to share this early outline to support ongoing dialogue and preparation across the wound care community.

More to come—stay tuned. Journal of Wound Care (JWC)
