CME in South Dakota

First pass, 2026-08-17.

Full coverage note — what was researched, and what the gaps are

Accreditor sweep + four research lanes. ⭐ SOUTH DAKOTA IS A CLEAN VACUUM: NO OWN ACCREDITOR, AND ONLY THE IOWA MEDICAL SOCIETY REACHES IN. The ACCME registry lists exactly 4 SD providers: Avera (321 activities) and Sanford Health (77) are ACCME-direct, Avel eCare (103) is Joint Accreditation, and Monument Health Rapid City (18) is the only one accredited by an out-of-state SOCIETY — the Iowa Medical Society, whose whole out-of-state footprint (measured on the Iowa pass) is exactly this one provider. No South Dakota state medical society appears as an accreditor, confirming the vacuum. ⚠️ TWO TIME ZONES, AND BOTH ARE SEEDED. Eastern SD (Sioux Falls) is CENTRAL; the Black Hills / western SD (Rapid City, Deadwood) is MOUNTAIN. Three seeded rows are Central (Avera's two Sioux Falls symposia and Sanford's Precision Medicine Symposium) and three are Mountain (Monument's Rapid City cardiovascular symposium, and the ACP and AFP chapter meetings, both at The Lodge at Deadwood). ⭐ AVERA IS MACHINE-READ VIA CLOUDCME (tenant `avera`), BUT ITS AMA FIGURE HIDES IN A FIELD THE EXTRACTOR SKIPS. Avera formats listing credit as 'Physician (AMA PRA Category 1 Credit(s)™) (N hours)' — the number after the parenthetical — so the extractor's amaHours parser returns `missing` for all 127 rows; re-parse the `credits` field. Most of Avera's catalog is nurse-only certification (TNCC/ENPC/AWHONN), correctly out of scope; two physician symposia carry a numeric AMA PRA figure (the CAV post-traumatic-growth conference at 10.0, the Cancer Institute Oncology Symposium at 6.0, both re-verified on their overview pages). ⭐ SANFORD IS ON eeds AND WAS RECOVERED WHERE A BROWSER-BLIND LANE SAW NOTHING. Sanford's dated CME lives on the eeds portal (Portal_SIN=230251), JavaScript-walled to a plain fetch; the committed eeds recipe (server-rendered portal_calendar.aspx, then ajax_functions.aspx?Function_ID=43&ConferenceID=<AIN>) recovered the Dr. H. Eugene Hoyme Precision Medicine Symposium (Aug 28, 2026, Sioux Falls, 6.50 AMA PRA Category 1, machine-verified). ⚠️ Sanford's two flagship annual symposia (Sports Medicine, Edith Sanford Breast Center) run in April and were already past at seeding, with 2027 editions unposted. KNOWN GAPS: three seeded rows carry no published AMA PRA figure (Monument's symposium says only 'credits will be available'; the ACP meeting carries the designation with a '(#)' placeholder hour number; the AFP Winter Seminar publishes no figure); Sanford's forward-month eeds pagination (lnkbtn_Next_Month postback) was not cracked headlessly, so Sept-2026-onward Sanford symposia are unread; Avel eCare's one in-person course (an Emergency Airway Training in Sioux Falls, April 2027) has credit only 'being pursued' and is held as a lead, not seeded; the SDSMA annual leadership conference was a past May 2026 edition and its CME/accreditation status could not be confirmed; the SD NP society (NPASD) events page 403s; and no VA Black Hills, IHS Great Plains, or Black Hills destination-CME event could be verified for the window.

22 listings

6 dated in SD · 8 attendable from anywhere · 8 series & catalogs

  1. Avera Health CME listing designates 'Physician (AMA PRA Category 1 Credit(s)™) (10.00 hours)' (machine-read via research:cloudcme; overview page confirmed 10.0, self-verified 2026-08-17). Sioux Falls, SD (Central). Multi-audience activity (also nursing / non-physician CME).

  2. Date verbatim: 'Thursday, October 1 & Friday, October 2, 2026'. Venue: The Lodge at Deadwood, Deadwood, SD (MOUNTAIN). The page carries the ACP designation 'designates this live activity for a maximum of (#) AMA PRA Category 1 Credit(s)™' with the hour number left as a placeholder, so the AMA PRA figure is recorded unknown pending publication (self-verified 2026-08-17).

    UNKNOWN, not zero, and deliberately not assumed. The APA is ACCME-accredited and is DC's largest registrant at 808 activities, but this event's own page carries NO credit figure, NO AMA PRA Category 1 designation and NO accreditation statement — the full agenda is published and the credit section simply does not exist. Audience published as 'all individuals who are passionate about supporting, developing, and championing women leaders in medicine, including: Medical Students, Residents & Fellows, Practicing Physicians, Academic Faculty, Department & Division Leaders, Physician Executives, Health System Leaders, Researchers' — physicians throughout, with no nurse-practitioner or physician-assistant category, so neither is claimed.

  4. Joint accreditation verbatim: 'Postgraduate Institute for Medicine is jointly accredited by the Accreditation Council for Continuing Medical Education (ACCME), the Accreditation Council for Pharmacy Education (ACPE), and the American Nurses Credentialing Center (ANCC), to provide continuing education for the healthcare team.' ⚠️ THE DESIGNATION DEFERS TO A CHART: 'The Postgraduate Institute for Medicine designates this live activity for a maximum of credits as listed in the chart below' — and the chart is not extractable without a browser, so the 2027 hour total is UNKNOWN. The prior year's marketed 'up to 26 CME credits' has deliberately NOT been carried across. ⚠️ PUBLISHER TYPO: the site's own navigation reads 'Myrtle Beach, FL' on every page while the conference page, breadcrumb and the venue address (9800 Queensway Blvd, Myrtle Beach, SC 29572) all say South Carolina. SC is correct.

  5. Same joint accreditation and same chart-deferred designation as the Myrtle Beach conference — the 2027 hour total is UNKNOWN and the prior year's marketed figure has not been carried across. Venue: 130 Shipyard Drive, Hilton Head Island, SC 29928.
