CME in Florida

Strongest: Mayo Clinic Florida (Jacksonville), Baptist Health South Florida, the University of Florida, and an unusually deep bench of specialty chapters. Florida-specific caution for anyone answering from this data: the state hosts a very high volume of NATIONAL conferences and supports a large commercial destination-CME industry, so a Florida venue does not mean a Florida provider. ⚠️ CORRECTED 2026-08-16 — THIS NOTE PREVIOUSLY SAID 'only activities whose provider is a Florida body are listed', AND THAT WAS FALSE. Measured: 12 of the 154 Florida-sited rows belong to organizations based in other states, and ten of those predate the correction. Six are GEORGIA societies that meet on Florida's Atlantic coast — dermatology, pediatrics, ophthalmology, psychiatry, rheumatology and the surgeons, five of them at Amelia Island alone — alongside Harvard Medical School at Orlando, Johns Hopkins at Marco Island, LECOM at Sarasota, Tennessee's ophthalmologists at Miramar Beach, and two Alabama societies at Lake Buena Vista and Destin. The rule this data follows is that the VENUE decides the state and the organization's home state is recorded separately, which is the opposite of what that sentence claimed. It is the same defect this project already fixed once in the not-seeded note, where telling assistants that returned rows were 'national or virtual' discounted thirteen real in-person accredited events. Known gaps: the Florida Psychiatric Society and Florida Society of Nephrology block all access so none of their dates are verified; the OB/GYN society's domain resolves to a parking page; several large systems (Orlando Health, BayCare, Lee Health, Jackson) publish nothing machine-readable; and roughly a dozen chapters have no published future dates. ⭐ PROMOTED TO pilot_complete 2026-08-16, against the bar in docs/STATE_QUALITY.md, whose four search-quality smoke checks now run as assertions in tests/florida.test.ts rather than by hand. The bar permits promotion with residual gaps NAMED AND ACCEPTED, which is how New Mexico and Texas were promoted, so the chapters whose next-year dates post between November and March do not block it. ⭐⭐ AND THE PROMOTION PASS FOUND THE THING THE FIRST PASS MISSED: FLORIDA HAS ITS OWN ACCME RECOGNIZED ACCREDITOR AND NOBODY HAD MEASURED IT. The FLORIDA MEDICAL ASSOCIATION accredits 22 of its 72 registry providers — 902 activities — and ZERO outside Florida, unlike Georgia's accreditor, which reaches into South Carolina. It surfaced only because a Baptist Health row's accreditation sentence names the FMA rather than the ACCME. Its roster is the state's backbone and it is almost exactly the list this note used to write off as publishing nothing: BayCare 230, AdventHealth Orlando 127, AdventHealth Tampa 102, Baptist Health 91, Lee Health 78, the Miami-Dade County Medical Association 45 — which is an accredited provider, not a minor county society — and the Florida AHEC Network 40, which was MISSING FROM THE ORGANIZATION LIST ENTIRELY until this pass. Read provider_accredited_by on the FIRST pass of a state, not the promotion pass. TWO GAPS CLOSED. The Florida Vascular Society, recorded as publishing only a month, now publishes its 40th Annual Scientific Sessions as April 15-18 2027 at The Ritz-Carlton Orlando. And Baptist Health Jacksonville, recorded as an empty catalog, runs an EthosCE tenant with two series at 1.00 AMA PRA Category 1 Credit a session — found by applying the EthosCE technique learned in South Carolina a day earlier. That tenant INVERTS the South Carolina one: there the conferences sat in /courses while the calendar held only series, here /courses holds a single FAQ page and the calendar holds everything, so read BOTH views on every tenant. The .ics month-path trap reproduces here too — three months requested, the same six events returned each time — making it a property of the PLATFORM rather than of one tenant. GAPS THAT REMAIN, RE-POLLED 2026-08-16 AND ACCEPTED. Eleven organizations are unreadable or empty rather than absent: the psychiatric society, Lee Health, Miami-Dade, the Physicians Society of Central Florida and the AHEC network all 403; BayCare's CME host still serves a certificate for an unrelated domain; the endocrine, addiction and rural health bodies each publish a literal 'No events'; the emergency physicians' events API returns zero for EVERY query including unfiltered, so it is not a usable index; and the surgeons' chapter page titled '2027 Annual Meeting' still prints 'Saturday, April 11 - Sunday, April 12, 2026'. That last one was settled by weekday rather than by eye: April 11-12 falls Saturday-Sunday in 2026 and Sunday-Monday in 2027, so the page publishes no 2027 date at all.
