The Medical Board of California recently sent me a notification about their Physician Corps Loan Repayment Program, a grant for California-licensed physicians who are willing to practice in underserved communities for three years. The goal of the program is to provide improved health care access to needy neighborhoods with the hope that doctors might remain where they are working after their three-year commitment.
The application deadline for this year is March 24, 2011. The application can be accessed here.
