That means we can work together to make sure our system fits your HME/DME business like a (surgical) glove... even if you run things a little differently from others in the industry. Our users aren't confined to a cookie-cutter approach! # CU Team Continues Commitment to HME/DME Industry with Medtrade Participation POSTED ON:2 February, 2018 WRITTEN BY: [Crystal Hopper](https://www.cu.net/hme/blog/author/crystal-hopper) Tag: [Medtrade](https://www.cu.net/hme/blog/topic/medtrade), [Medical Conference](https://www.cu.net/hme/blog/topic/medical-conference) ### Computers Unlimited Has Been Exhibiting Annually Since 1990 Medtrade events have always proven to be fruitful opportunities to visit with our customers, showcase our latest features to TIMS users and prospects, and network with a broad range of industry leaders and stakeholders. As one of the largest conferences for the home medical equipment community, attendees find resources and opportunities to network with experts as they move forward in the dynamic waves of the HME/DME industry. Medtrade continues to be an essential stop for HME/DME professionals who look to better understand the current industry climate and embrace business strategies to keep them well suited for success. “Medtrade is a really important show and we’ve made key connections. It’s been a solid day one. Attendees are looking for efficiency, productivity, and scalability of software. We’ve seen a mix of old and new customers looking for new opportunities.” — Gail Turner, HME Sales Consultant ![Medtrade-Fall-2018-Gail-Guest-Atlanta-Booth](https://www.cu.net/hs-fs/hubfs/Medtrade-Fall-2018-Gail-Guest-Atlanta-Booth.jpg?width=250&name=Medtrade-Fall-2018-Gail-Guest-Atlanta-Booth.jpg)Computers Unlimited's primary purpose in attending Medtrade is to make ourselves available to meet with our users, and invite prospective customers to become acquainted with our company, products, and services. Computers Unlimited is a service-based company with a premium suite of enterprise software applications directed toward best practices in the HME/DME industry. Attendees will certainly see new features, products, and concepts but, just as importantly, attendees will find Computers Unlimited to be a responsive, customer-focused systems provider with an expansive and deeply integrated software. Having a highly functional integrated business management software is a core requirement for any successful HME/DME business. Additionally, what is important for today’s HME/DME provider is to realize systems are not just billing/reimbursement systems. Today’s technologies deliver more opportunities for HME/DME providers to introduce higher levels of efficiency in every aspect of the business operation. Systems have become highly tuned to exact industry needs for all personnel within a provider’s organization—topics such as inventory control and delivery practice cannot be ignored. Without modern, deeply integrated tools, like those within TIMS Software, in place, many HME/DMEs can unknowingly drift behind the technology curve, and it becomes increasingly difficult for them to catch up. It would be a gross over-simplification to expect any HME/DME provider to consider just a single factor if they are looking to change and/or upgrade their software system. But to consolidate two factors that are certainly primary considerations, Computers Unlimited strongly suggests that the choice be the *right fit*: fit from the perspective of having a highly functional suite of applications fine-tuned specifically for the HME/DME provider. And, just as importantly, fit from the corporate perspective of a robust vendor partnership. Systems are deeply embedded within organizations. Prying one system away to install another cannot be accomplished successfully without heavy reliance on vendor resources and industry know-how. The quality of vendor resources for implementation, training, and ongoing support will have an impact equal or greater to the fit of the software/billing system. We look forward to talking with you more at future Medtrade events.
