Is HCCA CI worth exhibiting?

Why Exhibit

The largest healthcare compliance conference in the US. If you sell compliance software, audit tools, training platforms, privacy technology, or coding/billing compliance solutions, HCCA CI delivers 2,000+ Chief Compliance Officers and healthcare attorneys who purchase these tools. Every hospital and health system has a compliance department.

Why Skip

Not a clinical conference. No physicians, no clinical devices, no medical equipment. The audience buys software and services, not devices. If you do not sell compliance, privacy, or regulatory technology, there is no audience here.

What should exhibitors know before HCCA CI?

HCCA CI is the only show that matters for healthcare compliance technology vendors. The compliance officer is a mandatory role in every US hospital. This conference reaches them all. Orlando at Universal Orlando makes it a popular destination event. The 30th anniversary in 2026 will likely draw enhanced sponsorship opportunities. Healthcare enforcement trends (OIG, DOJ, CMS) drive session attendance and booth traffic.
