The HHCN & HMEB FUTURE Conference is a premier gathering for the home-based care and medical equipment ecosystem. In a landmark evolution for 2026, we have combined the two co-located events, HHCN FUTURE and HMEB FUTURE, into a single, comprehensive flagship event.

We are breaking down industry silos to create a unified forum where home health, home care, hospice, and home medical equipment (HME) leaders can collaborate on the future of care delivery. This integration reflects the reality of today’s market: a more connected, cross-disciplinary approach is required to drive innovation, navigate regulatory shifts, and improve patient outcomes.

why attend

Which seat is yours?

Home Health & Hospice Providers

You are managing more complex patients, a workforce under pressure, and a reimbursement environment that does not slow down. FUTURE is where you hear what is actually working, from operators navigating the same landscape in real time.

HME & DME Leaders

MA denials. New service lines. Margin defense. The HME C-suite is reshaping how the industry competes. FUTURE gives you three days of executive-level dialogue with the operators and payers defining the next era of equipment and supplies.

Capital Partners & Investors

Understanding at-home care and HME from the outside is getting harder. FUTURE gives you direct access to the operators defining quality, margin, and scalability, before the announcements are made.

Clinical, Operations & Growth Leaders

Policy shifts, staffing constraints, AI adoption, referral competition. FUTURE connects you with peers who are solving the same problems and sharing what is working.

M&A Advisors & Consultants

Your next client is probably in this room. FUTURE is the most concentrated gathering of home-based care and HME operators evaluating strategic transitions.

Technology & Solution Partners

Skip the trade show floor. FUTURE gives you the room conversations and direct access to what clinical and operational leaders are actually prioritizing and buying.

The hotel room block closes August 11. The provider rate is $1,200.

FUTURE is an intimate conference. The home-based care and HME leaders in this room are not there by accident. If you are considering it, now is the time.

Testimonials

Don’t take our word for it.

FUTURE is the one event where the conversations I have directly translate into decisions I make the following quarter. The caliber of operators in the room is unlike any other conference in home-based care.

Chief Executive Officer

Home Health Platform

I have attended every major home health conference. FUTURE is the only one where I consistently leave with relationships that turn into real partnerships and transactions.

Managing Director

Healthcare-Focused Private Equity

The HME track content gave me a framework I brought back to our leadership team the following week. For the first time, I felt like a conference actually understood the pressure points in our business.
