GBHCW votes to extend loan repayment awards for 2021

The Georgia Board of Health Care Workforce voted during its quarterly meeting in January to award to 37 physicians, 12 dentists, 20 physician assistants, and 20 advanced practice registered nurses through its service-cancelable loan repayment programs for 2021.

"The Board appreciates the determination and dedication these rural practitioners deliver to their respective communities," GBHCW Chairwoman Terri McFadden, M.D. said. "These awards will reflect the hard work of 93 recipients practicing in 49 different counties who are bringing improved health care access to rural Georgia for 2021."

A full list of loan repayment recipients and their practice location counties will be available on the GBHCW's website after all awards are accepted and contracts are fully executed.
