Registration is now open for the VGM Heartland Conference, taking place June 9-11 in the organization’s hometown of Waterloo, Iowa.
In a March 5 announcement, VGM said early-bird pricing will be in effect until April 18.
The 2025 conference will feature more than 60 educational sessions on topics such as Complex Rehab Technology, billing and compliance, technology and security, business operations, leadership and people strategy, respiratory, sales, marketing, accessibility, wound care, and policy. IACET and CEAC continuing education units (CEUs) will be offered.
“VGM Heartland Conference always offers a fun, vibrant and dynamic atmosphere for attendees to forge new connections while enjoying the famous VGM and midwestern hospitality,” said Jill Blaser, VGM Heartland’s chair. “There is something for everyone at the Heartland Conference, where community meets opportunity and knowledge meets innovation.”
Registration will give attendees access to educational sessions and the expo hall, plus meals, entertainment, and networking opportunities. This year’s networking options include the Van G. Miller golf tournament, tours of VGM, visits to Three Pines Farm, a John Deere factory tour, and a Hansen’s Dairy Farm tour.
Pre-conference workshops take place on Monday, June 9. VGM’s website has a “Heartland Conference justification letter” to convince supervisors to approve the trip.
“The rapidly evolving industry has potential for transformation, innovation, and growth, and attending Heartland Conference is the key to unlocking the potential of everyone’s business,” said Lindy Tentinger, president of VGM & Associates. “VGM is committed to providing the industry with the tools and expertise needed to thrive in an ever-changing healthcare landscape. This one-of-a-kind event offers attendees a unique opportunity to come together and learn how we will chart a course towards a future increasingly centered around home care, ensuring that providers are at the forefront of this transformation with the latest technological advancements.”
