Frequently Asked Questions

Before the Meeting

When and where is ACEP24?

September 29 - October 2, 2024 at the Mandalay Bay Convention Center in Las Vegas, Nevada.

Why do I need to provide my email address?

We only use this email address to provide you with information about the Annual Meeting in a timely manner (confirmation/receipts, conference updates). We also send daily course evaluations via the email address you provide. 

Where can I get a copy of my check-in barcode for my badge if I am attending?

As we get closer to ACEP24, you will be sent an email with your barcode for check-in at ACEP24. You should also receive it in your confirmation email once you register.

Where do I make my hotel reservations?

Reservations for the ACEP Room Block can be made online through our official housing partner, onPeak. No payment is needed upfront. Be aware of internet pirates! onPEAK is the ONLY official ACEP24 trusted housing partner.

When will I receive the course presentations for the conference?

Electronic presentations will be available on the ACEP24 website for download or print about two weeks before the conference. 

Should I bring my laptop if I am attending in person?

Because of the way most course rooms are set up to accommodate many people comfortably, outlets and tables are NOT provided in most meeting rooms. If you would like to bring your laptop, remember to bring it fully charged each morning 

What is the cancellation policy for the ACEP24?

Full conference registration, less the $200 cancellation fee, is refundable only if submitted in writing to Member Care 30 days prior to the beginning of the conference. Registrations and cancellations received after the 30-day deadline are not refundable. All lab cancellations received after 30 days will not be refunded. Exceptions will be made for family emergencies and must be submitted in writing to Member Care. For these instances, the full conference registration fee, less the $200 cancellation fee, will be refunded. You cannot reinstate a registration after you cancel. If you cancel and are entitled to a refund, expect the refund within 30 days. All refunds will be issued back to the original payment type. Cash payments will be refunded by check.

How do I get my physician group or residency alumni event publicized for ACEP24?

Fill out the form and return following the directions on the form. ACEP will alert all registrants (who indicate they are part of your group) about your Physician Group or alumni event details - date, time and location - as they register for ACEP24. 

This will be my first annual meeting, what do you suggest I see and do?

Make sure you plan which courses you would like to attend before you arrive onsite as popular courses will fill fast - seating in the course rooms is first come, first seated, so plan accordingly. If you do miss a course, however, Virtual ACEP24 has you covered, with access to all the courses from ACEP24 for 18 months after the conference. The Exhibit Hall features hundreds of companies showing off the latest products related to EM. ACEP24 also features some spectacular social events where you can eat, network and have some fun. ACEP’s Research Forum, EM’s premier research event, is fully integrated into the educational schedule, making it easier than ever to view and discuss original research.

Who is allowed to host hospitality suites and receptions?

Only ACEP-affiliated organizations and exhibiting companies will be given the approval to host official hospitality suites and receptions during ACEP24. For more information, please call 800-798-1822, ext. 3166.

Am I required to wear my name badge?

Yes. All registrants will be provided a name badge for use during the meeting. For security purposes, name badges are required at all times in the convention center and social events. Individuals without a visible name badge will not be permitted into the course rooms, events or Exhibit Hall.

Are ACEP24 venues accessible to people with disabilities?

Yes. In accordance with the Americans with Disabilities Act, ACEP uses only facilities that are in compliance. If you are disabled and require special assistance while attending ACEP24, please call 888-817-2237.

What should I wear to ACEP24 events?

The attire for the meeting is business casual. Every effort will be made to provide a comfortable learning environment; however, meeting room temperatures can fluctuate greatly and may be difficult to control. The temperature is often cool in the meeting rooms, therefore, a jacket or sweater is recommended for the conference.

What is ACEP doing to transition into green meetings?

ACEP has made a commitment to the environment by making small but powerful changes in our meetings that will positively impact the environment and reduce the carbon footprint of ACEP and each registrant and exhibitor. Here is what to expect this year:

No paper presentations will be distributed onsite. Presentations submitted by our speakers will be available to download on the My Registration portion of the ACEP24 website prior to the conference for those wanting to print a copy before the meeting.

• Paperless Evaluations - course evaluations are all done online.
• Registrant badges will be recycled.
• Exhibit Hall carpet will be recycled.
• No printed onsite program - everything you need will be in the ACEP24 mobile app.

As we continue the journey, we welcome your ideas to help us achieve this goal.

Can I register for just one or two days?

Yes, see our pricing page for the many options for attending ACEP24.  

Will there still be a Drop the Mic Competition? How do I sign up?

Yes. ACEP’s new speaker forum, “Drop the Mic” has been re-imagined. The first 27 aspiring new speakers who apply (and meet the criteria) by June 30 will present live in an all-day event at ACEP24. The top two finalists will return the next day for main stage finale. Visit the Drop the Mic page for more details.

Will my (Group, Chapter, Residency Alumni) have events in conjunction with ACEP24?

We expect many of these groups to conduct events in coordination with ACEP24.

Will there be ACEP Committee and Section meetings?
