Section 44:63:03:02 - Review of applications

The order in which applications are reviewed shall be based on the date upon which they are received. Upon receipt, each application shall be verified for completeness and evidence that the J-l physician will provide full-time service to a shortage area. If on any given date the number of applications received exceeds the number of available waiver slots, the reviewers may consider the following factors:

1) Primary care/specialty care;

2) Rural/urban location;

3) Impact on service to South Dakota's underserved populations;

4) Number of recent waivers approved for the applying health care facility/health system;

5) Number of recent waivers approved for the applying geographic location within the state; or

6) Any other factors or special circumstances the department considers relevant to the review process.

If reviewers intend to consider the factors listed above in evaluating an application, the employing facility will be afforded the opportunity to submit supplemental information.
