Subject: The National Health Service Corps FY 2011 Loan Repayment Program is Now Open

Last week the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services published its 2011 National Health Service Corps Loan Repayment Program information bulletin<http://nhsc.hrsa.gov/loanrepayment/pdf/2011nhsclrpguidance.pdf>.  The National Health Service Corps is a competitive program that recruits health professionals to serve in areas with inadequate access to health care (referred to as Health Professional Shortage Areas--HSPAs).  In return for their service, the corps assists clinicians in their payment of qualifying education loans.  To be eligible, counselors must be fully trained, licensed and working at (or in the final stages of employment negotiations with) an NHSC-eligible facility.  For more information, or to apply online, visit http://nhsc.hrsa.gov/loanrepayment/apply.htm.

Deadline:  May 26, 2011

The "opportunities list" of facilities seeking a NHSC provider is available at http://nhscjobs.hrsa.gov/.
