South Dakota is appropriating $1,348,294 to pay back healthcare professionals (family physicians, physician assistants, and nurse practitioners) who completed requirements for two rural recruitment assistance programs. The Department of Health will determine which professionals qualify and process the reimbursements. The bill declares an emergency so the payments can be made immediately rather than waiting for the normal budget process.
