What’s in it
This bill permits a loan repayment recipient under the rural physician loan repayment program to continue to receive loan repayment after refinancing an eligible federal loan with a private educational loan. However, the loan repayment amount cannot exceed the lesser of the amount of loan repayment allowed under the program or the balance of the loan repayment amount the loan repayment recipient qualified to receive with the eligible loan. The bill includes a technical change that moves to a new subsection language limiting the commission to entering into not more than program agreements annually.
Changed since by amendment H-8048; see Amendments.
