The Michigan State Loan Repayment Program (MSLRP) is now accepting applications through April 30. MSLRP assists employers in attracting and retaining medical, dental and mental healthcare providers in underserved communities by providing loan repayment. Healthcare providers are required to work full time in healthcare shortage areas for two consecutive years at an eligible nonprofit practice to qualify for the educational loan forgiveness. Those selected will receive up to $300,000 in tax-free educational loan repayment over a ten-year period.
Top priority will be given to applicants who fit in to one of the following categories:
- Behavioral Health Providers
- Inpatient Pediatric Psychiatrists
- Physicians Assistants
- Nurse Practitioners
- Northern Obstetric Service Providers
- Workers in Genesee County
Applications should be completed through the File Transfer Application System. Members are encouraged to apply early, as awards will be given on a rolling basis until applications exhaust program funds.
Members with questions may contact Lauren LaPine at the MHA.
