Maritz gets on the road to shout about healthcare compliance

Maritz Travel, a Maritz Global Events company, is to start a new road tour in the USA dedicated to healthcare compliance. The agency hopes the roadshow will allow attendees to meet and talk with industry expert Pat Schaumann on important topics surrounding compliant medical meeting experiences. “We developed Maritz Travel | Healthcare Solutions to respond to the challenges medical meeting planners face every day,” said Maritz Travel’s division president Steve O’Malley. “This road tour allows us to have face-to-face dialogue on one of the challenges we hear about the most – compliance.” Beginning in August, the tour will hit four major cities: Tampa (10 August), San Diego (7 September), Chicago (19 October) and ending in Philadelphia on 24 October. Schaumann, senior director of healthcare compliance at Maritz Travel, will address a range of topics, including the importance of the health care professional (HCP) experience, event execution and data capture, and expenditure tracking – a hallmark of compliance – among others. “The response to our new healthcare solution has been overwhelming,” said Schaumann. “I’m excited to get the show on the road to help connect meetings professionals with the compliance information they’ve been searching for.” Meeting planners interested in attending any of the events should visit http://info.maritztravel.com/on-the-road-to-healthcare-compliance-PR.
