Are there are programs for doctors to practice in underprivileged communities and get loan forgiveness?
This is for a health care class I’m in. I’m wondering if there’s a program kind of like Teach for America, but for doctors. Doctors would agreed to teach in underprivileged areas for a certain number of years, and would receive money that could go towards paying off medical school loans?
Big bonus points if I can get the answer within the next hour and a half, because that’s when my class starts.
Yes, there are programs out there. It is through the US Department of Health and Human Services. I have included links to websites for more information and the forms involved.
