Navigating TSA with Medical Conditions: Insights from IFFGD’s Advocacy Event

In this video, we cover important topics and answer key questions, including:

What is the most efficient way to travel with necessary medical supplies?
What should patients keep in mind as they prepare for air travel?
What can patients with medical supplies expect as they go through checkpoints?
