Deadline for ‘early bird’ AHRA 2016 registration is April 30

Mark those calendars! April 30 is the deadline to get “early bird” rates when registering for AHRA 2016.

Both AHRA members and individuals who are not members save $50 off full registration for the conference, which begins July 31 in Nashville, Tenn.

Ernesto Cerdena, CRA, AHRA 2015-2016 president, told RadiologyBusiness.com that the AHRA wanted to provide attendees with opportunities at a “palatable price point.”

"Our members are being challenged to do more with less and that includes making smart use of their education budgets,” Cerdena said. “We implemented the early bird registration for the 2016 Annual Meeting in Nashville this summer so they could more easily participate.”

Additional information about AHRA 2016 is available on the association’s website.
