Advisory Councils

The HME Expo and Conference Group has been designed and developed to provide a new approach to showcasing the HME Industry.  Our mission is to provide the industry with the ability to connect buyers and sellers, network with industry peers, receive relevant business information from a well thought out conference program, and to promote the HME Industry to decision-makers in Washington DC.  This will be a true industry event rather than an industry tradeshow.  This event will allow the leaders of the industry to demonstrate the critical role that HME providers have in the healthcare continuum.
