There is not a set dress code for GMHC. Casual is acceptable.
The following meals are included in your registration:
*Vegetarian and gluten free meals are available at the conference. Please request a special ticket for these meals upon registration.
**We understand that many people have varying dietary needs/restrictions. Please be advised that the above options are all we can provide due to the amount of registrants that attend each year. If you have a restrictive diet beyond gluten free/vegetarian, we recommend that you bring your own meals or arrange for meal delivery service at your own expense. We cannot discount GMHC tickets if you chose not to eat the provided meals. Thank you for understanding.
We understand that not providing childcare makes it difficult for people with children to attend. We have pursued this opportunity many times, but due to legal and logistical issues, we have not been able to make it work. We apologize for the inconvenience this causes.
For safety/security reasons we cannot allow groups to use nursery/children's ministry space for childcare purposes. This includes if you opt to bring your own childcare/babysitter. Children will need to remain in company of their parent(s) while at the conference. Thank you for your understanding.
Due to processing costs, we typically do NOT offer refunds. However, we understand that there can be restrictions and uncertainty around travel.
If for some reason you are unable to attend we will be happy to work with you to come up with a solution or transfer your registration to to the virtual option or the conference the following year.
Please email info@medicalmissions.com with refund requests.

Each year we typically have two time slots for our Hands On classes - Friday from 1:00-2:45 pm and Friday 3:15-5:00 pm. You MUST pre-register for these classes on-site at the conference! Online pre-registration is not available. The classes will cost $5 to cover the materials that the facilitators will be supplying.
Please come to the registration desk at your earliest convenience to register for these classes, as they tend to fill up quickly.
The GMHC offers up to 8 credit hours of Continuing Education for a variety of health care professions (AMA PRA Category 1 Credit™; AAFP, Nursing, Pharmacy CPE, Dental).

Sessions with available CE must be attended in person to apply for CE and details on how to apply for credit can also be found at the CE information desk.

We are happy to have over 170 exhibitors each year at GMHC. Exhibiting booth space/registration is on a first come, first serve basis. We approve each exhibitor, and look to have exhibitors that have a primary focus on medical missions/healthcare related ministries & organizations.
Exhibitor registration opens in spring, usually early April.
Exhibit booths fill up quickly, so we highly recommend that you check back frequently in late March for the exact dates registration opens.
We cannot pre-reserve any spaces or "hold" spaces before or during booth registration dates.
All booths are non-refundable. Please be advised of this before purchasing.
