Since 1972, the National Health Service Corps (NHSC) has awarded scholarships and loan repayment to family physicians who commit to practice for at least two years in an approved Health Professional Shortage Area (HPSA) site. NHSC programs provide access to primary care in underserved areas as well as medical student debt relief. This effective program will expire on Saturday, September 30, if Congress does not act.
Please email your Member of Congress to urge their support for NHSC funding.
