Hear that sound of suitcases being zipped shut and booth displays being packed into cardboard boxes? That’s the sound of the industry preparing to once again head off to the "Big Peach" to attend Medtrade 2015.
Slated for Oct. 26-29 at Atlanta’s Georgia World Congress Center, this edition of the event will feature exhibits from more than 400 exhibitors serving up a wide variety of home medical equipment offerings hitting every corner of the industry, from retail to respiratory to mobility to home access.
To get an idea of what’s in store, read HME Business’s round-up of 40 products and services that will be at the expo.
On the education front, the show is offering a host of educational offerings to help providers cope with industry challenges and develop new strategies for sustaining and expanding their businesses in the face of these industry challenges. These include a number of Monday workshops on Oct. 26, and 80 conference sessions across a broad range of topics.

In addition, the event offers a number of social and networking events, such as the Monday evening Audit Happy Hour; the Tuesday Power Lunch; American Association for Homecare Standup for Homecare reception later that Tuesday evening; and Wednesday’s HME Breakfast Club.
Also important is the Tuesday morning Washington Update from the American Association for Homecare, which will update attendees on key issues facing the industry, and what providers need to do to help industry advocacy efforts.
