I tell General Cardiology candidates considering South Dakota that the in-state base typically lands inside the national range above, with rural and HPSA-designated counties producing offers at or above the upper end once signing bonuses, loan repayment, and rural premiums are stacked. The single biggest variance lever for any General Cardiology offer in South Dakota is whether the role sits in one of the major South Dakota metros above or in a shortage-area county.
