Early legislation for Medtrade, which will be held at the Georgia World Congress Center in Atlanta from Oct. 31to Nov. 3, is currently on, and offers attendees significant savings.
Providers registering early can save up to $75 on admission to the exposition hall, and more than $200 on the conference in comparison to later registration, or registration at the show.
“The HME industry is seemingly never in a time of quiet stability, and this year is no different,” said Kevin Gaffney, group show director for Medtrade. “With that in mind, we are preparing a show that is designed to help providers deal with changing times. Early registration is the first step toward making your plans to find the solutions you need. If you are looking to save money, it pays to act now.”
