National Health Service Corps Loan Repayment Programs

The National Health Service Corps (NHSC) Loan Repayment Program (LRP) offers primary medical, dental, and mental and behavioral health care clinicians the opportunity to have their student loans repaid while earning a competitive salary, in exchange for serving in urban, rural, or tribal communities with limited access to care. FQHCs are NHSC-approved sites.

Public Service Loan Forgiveness

If you are employed by a U.S. federal, state, local, or tribal government or not-for-profit organization, you might be eligible for the Public Service Loan Forgiveness Program. Learn more about qualifying employment & loans, and more.

 

Are you a health profession student?

If you are a student in your last year of medical, nursing, or dental school, you may be eligible to receive loan repayment assistance from the NHSC Students to Service Loan Repayment Program or Nurse Corps Scholarship Program. In return, you provide at least 2-3 years of service at an NHSC-approved site (such as an FQHC).

 

MPCA Digital Workforce Recruitment Campaign

MPCA launched our first digital media recruitment efforts in early March. Digital advertisements will be utilized to entice local and out-of-state job seekers to MPCA’s job board. We encourage health centers to post any vacancies as we work to drive traffic to our website and job board. A digital toolkit with video and social media templates are available for you to adapt and use in your own recruitment and outreach efforts. You can download those materials below.
