Home Health Coding Summit Speaker Arlynn Hansell, PT, HCS-D, HCS-H, HCS-O, COS-C, owner of Therapy and More, LLC, says, "I am so excited to once again be involved with live events!

I miss the smiles and the small talk – from sharing personal events in our attendees' lives, to the celebrations of professional changes we watch our 'conference friends' evolve into! I also miss the sharing of experiences, from hearing 'Yes-I had that denial too!' to the laughs in the classroom. But, most of all, I miss the energy of the attendees! I can't wait to see everyone in August!"
