The applicant must describe achievable objectives, a timetable, and roles and capabilities of responsible individuals in the organization.
Subd. 4. Consideration of expansion grant applications.

The commissioner shall award grants to support up to six family medicine, general internal medicine, or general pediatrics residents; four psychiatry residents; two geriatrics residents; and two general surgery residents. If insufficient applications are received from any eligible specialty, funds may be redistributed to applications from other eligible specialties.
