What’s in it

AI summary Under the current rules, medical students who receive loan help for working in rural areas must pay back all that money if they don't finish five years of service. This change would stop those students from having to pay back what they already received, but it would prevent the state from giving them any more money if they stop working early. This new rule applies to anyone who starts receiving these loan repayments on or after the bill becomes law.1

Read the official explanation

_____ This bill relates to individuals who fail to fulfill the obligation to engage in practice in a service commitment area under the rural Iowa primary care loan repayment program (program).113. The bill provides that the college student aid commission is to make loan repayments after the completion of each year of practice. Current law requires an individual who receives loan repayments under the program to repay the commission the total amount of those loan repayments if the individual fails to fulfill the obligation to practice as a physician in a service area for five years. The bill strikes this requirement. The bill provides that, if the individual fails to fulfill the obligation to practice as a physician in a service area for five years, the commission is prohibited from making additional loan repayments to the individual. The bill applies to individuals who receive loan repayments under the program on or after the effective date of the bill.
