Two days of essential education!

March 23 & 24, 2027 in Columbus, Ohio

Featuring keynotes by Palmetto GBA, the SFC is the only conference of its kind in Ohio. Innovators and thought leaders from around the country will convene in Columbus this spring with presentations that will directly benefit your organization and career.

“The Spring Financial Conference held annually by the Ohio Council for Home Care & Hospice proves to be invaluable year after year, and it is one of the few conferences that is mandatory within my organization for not only clinical and operational managers, but also for billing personnel. The content of the Conference is structured, relevant, and worthy of the time we spend away from our day-to-day business. I encourage everyone to attend this conference!” – Catie Bryan, Hospice Professional

Conference Outline

Day One features a Home Health Track and Hospice Track with unique education and a keynote by experts from Palmetto GBA approved for 4 Contact Hours for Nursing. We conclude Day One with an enjoyable networking reception at Hofbräuhaus Columbus. Day Two brings everyone together for a well rounded slate of learning and networking in a combined general session.

Each year, we are grateful for the support and participation of an incredible lineup of experts and leaders in the home and community-based care field. When you join us at the Conference, be sure to meet all of our Sponsors and Exhibitors who will be with us for both days.
