As you know, PRN Funding was invited to be a first-time exhibitor at the Private Duty Home Care Leadership Summit & Exposition in Las Vegas last week. We were grateful to have the opportunity to speak one-on-one with private duty home care agency owners about the benefits of home healthcare factoring, however, from the exhibitor’s perspective, the show was not a good one.

To start, there were a lot of last minute changes to the schedule. Hours changed, which made it difficult for exhibitors to set up their booths on time and/or catch flights on the last day. Luckily, PRN Funding didn’t have any issues with flights, so we were unaffected by the schedule changes.

In addition to the hour changes, exhibitors noticed that it was difficult for attendees to visit the exhibit hall. The show managers arranged to have a few 15-minute breaks in-between sessions, however, it seemed that most attendees used that time to go to the bathroom, run to their rooms quickly, return phone calls and emails and/or grab a quick cup of coffee before it was time for their next session. (Rightfully so–That’s how any professional attending a conference would use a 15-minute break.)

I’m sure it was frustrating for attendees who wanted to visit specific exhibitors but didn’t have the time to do so, or they had to choose between attending an educational session or skipping it to visit the exhibit hall. Rest assured that it was equally frustrating for exhibitors who stayed in the exhibit hall for long hours without the ability to conduct business.

The last big hiccup at NAHC’s Leadership Summit was that the entrance into the exhibit hall was in a different location than what was printed in the trade show materials. In essence, the exhibit hall was flipped. For all the exhibitors who strategically placed their booths in premium locations in the front of the exhibit hall ended up  being in the back.

On the plus side, John S. of Senior Home Care won the $100 Amazon gift card giveaway! Congratulations!

With years of experience in healthcare industry, PRN Funding has a precise understanding of the unique challenges within the private duty and home care industries. PRN Funding offers financial resources to these companies by purchasing their accounts receivable–a process known as ‘factoring’, which provides the cash needed to sustain and grow a healthcare business.

Known throughout the factoring industry as a healthcare funder, PRN Funding recently added a brand new vertical to it’s healthcare factoring repertoire: Teleradiology.

Helping to improve access to medical services, teleradiology is the ability to send images from one location (i.e. an imaging center, clinic or physician’s office) to another location for evaluation.

Specifically, PRN Funding extended a $500,000 credit line to this growing teleradiology client based in the Greater Philadelphia area.

Last week, PRN Funding had the opportunity to exhibit at the National Association for Home Care and Hospice’s 2011 Conference for the first time, and we have a lot of mixed feelings and opinions about it.

From an exhibitor’s point of view, the show was slightly disappointing because out of a projected 1500 conference attendees, we only got to meet 350 of them!

However, those who stopped by had the opportunity to learn more about PRN Funding’s home care factoring services, and they were able to enter PRN’s iPad2 giveaway.

Special congrats goes to Cheryl from Apple Home Health Care who was the lucky winner!

Now we’re gearing up for Decision Health’s 14th Annual Private Duty Conference at the Bellagio Casino in Las Vegas next month!
