Delivering Excellence in SCI/D Care, Treatment, and Rehabilitation

Now in its ninth year, the PVA Healthcare Summit + Expo is the only U.S. conference that brings together interdisciplinary healthcare teams from the VA and private institutions to strengthen the continuum of care for veterans and all people living with spinal cord injury and related diseases (SCI/D).

This intensive, three-day program will feature the latest research, technologies, and best practices for SCI/D, MS, and ALS. Attendees from around the nation will come to learn from renowned leaders and specialists, collaborate with their colleagues in other disciplines, and catch the industry’s newest medical innovations.

Clinicians will leave Orlando ready to implement new, holistic strategies to help their patients lead healthy, independent, and fulfilling lives.
