NDMA ANNUAL MEETING
October 15 & 16, 2026
Grand Forks, ND
Alerus Center
The annual meeting is held in conjunction with the ND Chapter of the American College of Physicians and the ND Chapter of the Society of Hospital Medicine. The combined effort offers an even greater network to increase program dynamics.
A hallmark of the event is the policy forum, where physicians vet policy issues and are instrumental in moving new state policy forward. In addition, the historic presentation of awards is a monumental moment for many - award recipients, their families, and cohorts - who all share in the moment to recognize life-time achievements for many.
Please join us. You’ll be glad you did.
