Resumen con IA Mental health professionals can currently get help paying back their student loans if they work in certain cities that have a shortage of care.

This bill relates to eligibility for the mental health loan repayment program. Under current law, loan repayment is available to mental health professionals who agree, in part, to practice in an “eligible practice area” which is defined as a city in Iowa that is within a federal mental health shortage area, as designated by the health resources and services administration of the United States department of health and human services. The bill instead provides that loan repayment is available to mental health professionals who agree, in part, to practice in an “eligible practice site” which is defined as a community-based mental health provider location including a community mental health center.
