Funding provided for the health professional education loan forgiveness program for physicians licensed to practice medicine in the area of obstetrics and gynecology, and money appropriated.
Introduction and first reading, referred to Health Finance and Policy
Summary
The bill sets aside money from the state’s general fund for the health professional education loan forgiveness program, but only for doctors licensed in obstetrics and gynecology who work in designated rural areas. It applies to fiscal years 2027 and 2028 and overrides the usual priority rules in the existing statute. If there are not enough qualified applicants, any leftover money rolls over and is shared with other eligible health professions.
