AAHomecare cuts registration fee for Washington conference

The American Association for Homecare has told members that it will eliminate the registration fee for the Feb. 15-16 Washington Legislative Conference. AAHomecare is also subsidizing registration for non-members by charging only $100.

AAHomecare said it took the step because of critical issues being considered in Washington. The February conference may be the last good chance for the HME industry to get the Market Pricing Program passed into law and replace Medicare’s Competitive Bidding Program.

AAHomecare is now scheduling appointments for the Feb. 16 Lobby Day when the organization expects hundreds of HME advocates to meet with their senators and representatives.

Providers who registered before the discounts were announced will be eligible for a refund, but must submit a refund request. For inquiries about registration, contact Ashley Wyatt at 703-535-1880. For inquiries about Capitol Hill visits, contact Gordon Barnes 703-535-1883.
