Join your Ohio peers and colleagues from around the nation to advocate for sustainable reimbursement rates and other public policy priorities for the HME sector! Your direct meetings with Members of Congress and their staffers can have a significant impact on getting much needed relief for our industry.
OAMES is currently scheduling Capitol Hill appointments for all of the Ohio attendees and AAHomecare will provide issue education and materials for your meetings. We'll also provide tips on the best ways to establish working relationships with your members of Congress and how to follow-up with those offices to reinforce your message.
The Washington Legislative Conference also gives you a great opportunity to meet and network with leaders in the HME community who share your interest in advocating for provider and patient interests.
