PACE Provider #34015544 · Accepted by the Kansas State Board of Healing Arts · Instant per-course certificates for your renewal attestation
Since 2022, every Kansas chiropractor's renewal has carried one credit that didn't exist before: Category III. It's a small requirement with a specific shape — an internet or live activity on acute or chronic pain management, opioid prescribing, or prescription-drug monitoring — and it's the credit doctors most often discover missing when they sit down to attest. This pack closes it in one purchase: two clinical pain-management courses from a chiropractic orthopedist and a diplomate in clinical nutrition, four hours, both certificates instant.
Four hours rather than one, on purpose: a single 2-hour course clears an 18-month term, and the second course covers the 2 or 3 credits a 30- or 42-month term requires — so the pack fits every Kansas license length without a second purchase. Both hours also count toward your Category II balance; nothing is wasted.
| KSBHA requires | This pack delivers | Status |
| Category III content: acute or chronic pain management, opioid prescribing, or PDMP use | Both courses are chronic-pain and pain-management content by title and objectives | Met |
| Category III format: internet or live activity that also qualifies as Category I or II | Internet courses qualifying as Category II (self-paced); each with a knowledge quiz and printable certificate | Met |
| Credits: 1 per 18-month term · 2 per 30 · 3 per 42 | 4 credits | Met for any term length |
| Accepted providers — KCA-approved and/or FCLB PACE | Both PACE-approved; Provider #34015544 | Met |
| Rest of the 50 — 20 Category I + Category II balance | Not included. Category II balance in one purchase: Kansas 30-Hour Category II Max + Category III Bundle (which already contains this pack) | Your choice |
• Orthopedics 208: Managing Chronic Pain · 2 hrs · Steve Yeomans, DC, FACO — evidence-based frameworks for the patient who never fully resolves; central sensitization, outcome measures, and the non-pharmacologic role of the DC
• Nutrition 249: New Strategies for Pain Management in the Chiropractic Setting · 2 hrs · Howard Benedikt, DC, DCBCN — nutritional and lifestyle strategies as adjuncts to pain management, and the opioid-sparing case for conservative care
Steve Yeomans, DC, FACO — Fellow of the Academy of Chiropractic Orthopedists; author and lecturer on outcomes-based management of chronic pain.
Howard Benedikt, DC, DCBCN — Diplomate of the Chiropractic Board of Clinical Nutrition; nutritional strategies in pain and inflammation. Full bios: CCEDseminars faculty page.
Four hours at $20 per credit hour = $80. No promo codes. Need your Category II balance too? The Kansas 30-Hour Category II Max + Category III Bundle already includes both of these courses plus 13 more, at the 20% tier — $480 for the whole self-paced half of your term.
Under K.A.R. 100-15-4(d), Category III is an internet or live continuing-education activity that also meets Category I or II standards and covers at least one of: acute or chronic pain management, the appropriate prescribing of opioids, or the use of prescription drug monitoring programs. Kansas has required at least one Category III credit per 18-month term since the 2022 renewal year.
Category III credits are counted within your 50-credit total, not in addition to it, and they satisfy the Category I or II standard the activity meets. These self-paced courses qualify as Category II; they satisfy your Category III credit and count toward your Category II balance, but do not reduce the 20 Category I credits you must earn through structured, interactive, formal learning such as live events or webinars.
Two reasons. First, courses are 2 hours each, so one course already exceeds a 1-credit requirement; the second course covers the 2 or 3 credits required for 30- and 42-month terms. Second, every hour also counts toward your Category II balance, so nothing is wasted. If you truly need only one course, either one is available individually at $40.
Yes. The Kansas State Board of Healing Arts accepts continuing education approved by the Kansas Chiropractic Association and/or FCLB PACE. Both courses are PACE-approved from CCEDseminars, Provider #34015544. Confirm your personal obligations and term length with the Board.
$80 — $20 per credit hour times 4, no promo codes. Both courses are 100% online and self-paced with instant certificates. Bundling 6 or more hours in one cart earns an automatic 10% discount, and 10 or more earns 20%.
