Conference corner: How to save money on the 2018 ACDIS Conference

The early bird discount deadline for the 2018 ACDIS Conference is Tuesday, March 20. The discount gives registrants $100 off their conference registration. This year’s event takes place May 21-24 at the Henry B. Gonzalez Convention Center in San Antonio, Texas.

The early bird discount isn’t the only way you can save money on your conference ticket, though. To begin with, ACDIS members automatically receive $100 off their conference admission, meaning those who register by March 20 will receive a $200 price cut over their non-member, non-early-bird friends.

Even non-members, however, can take advantage of the pre-conference discount. When you register for the main ACDIS conference and one of the three pre-con events, you’ll receive a 15% discount on your order. This year’s pre-con events are the CCDS Exam Prep Class, the Mastering Clinical Concepts in CDI Boot Camp, and the Physician Advisor’s Role in CDI Boot Camp. To read some tips from the physician advisor Boot Camp instructors, visit the ACDIS Blog.

If several of the CDI specialists from your facility or even your ACDIS local chapter plan to attend the conference, you may be eligible for  a group discount. When you register a group of five before March 20, each person’s fee drops to $760, which is the equivalent of getting one person’s registration fee waived. Should you wait till after the early-bird deadline, the price per person in a group of five will be $840.

While you’re registering for the conference and pre-con events, don’t forget to sign up to attend the Closing Night Awards Reception, which will be held on Wednesday, May 23. Tickets for the event are $25, which includes two complementary drink tickets and appetizers.
