Rural Dentist Incentive Program
| |
Every year this program assists dentists in repaying educational loans in order that they may practice in a Health Professional Shortage Area (HPSA) without the financial burden of unpaid educational loans. During the commitment period, the dentist will establish a viable practice and become involved in their community so that they will continue practicing in the area after the funding period is over. Priority for this program will be given to those demonstrating need and expressing honest intent to remain in the underserved area once funding is completed. You can find the application here.
