MIDWEST CLINIC SHUTTLE POLICY
Shuttles will run between McCormick Place West and the official conference hotels. Attendees must show shuttle passes when they board. The Midwest Clinic is pleased to provide complimentary shuttle passes to attendees staying at our official conference hotels. We encourage you to take advantage of this free service, as well as special accommodation rates, by staying in one of the hotels listed above. You will receive your shuttle pass when you check-in at your hotel, and may use it throughout the entire conference. Please note that the official conference hotels will provide us with lists of their Midwest Clinic guests. When you make your reservation, you must inform hotel staff that you are participating in The Midwest Clinic in order to receive your complimentary shuttle pass. Passes cannot be shared, so please give the hotel the name of every person staying in your room.

Any attendee who is not staying at one of the official conference hotels but wishes to use the shuttle service is welcome to purchase a shuttle pass. Passes will be available at The Midwest Clinic registration desk for $20. They can be used throughout the entire conference, allowing attendees to save money on taxis and parking.

The Midwest Clinic will be accessible to all. If your mobility is limited and you plan to use the conference shuttles, please contact The Midwest Clinic office at as soon as possible so we can make sure your needs are accommodated.

MORE INFORMATION ABOUT HOUSING
The Midwest Clinic has a strong relationship with each of the official conference hotels, and works with them to provide discounted conference rates. Occasionally, outside travel agencies contact conference attendees, promising lower rates. In the past, some have claimed to be affiliated with The Midwest Clinic, or have offered a lower rate in exchange for entering an awards program or signing up for another service. Please be aware that housing offers from anyone other than our Event Manager, Anna Collinge, do not come from The Midwest Clinic, and approach them with caution. If you have been contacted by a travel agency or have questions about the legitimacy of an offer, please contact us at .
