Yesterday, I was in Washington DC for the ANCOR Ignite! conference.

MediSked is an ANCOR Gold Sponsor and we were an exhibitor too, so Mike and I spent most of our time staffing our table and sharing the MediSked story. We did manage to sneak away (one at a time) to catch some of the speakers and presentations, though - and I couldn't be more grateful for that.
