Loan Repayment and Grants | Idaho Department of Health and Welfare Rural Health and Underserved Areas Improving access to healthcare Rural Health and Underserved Areas Recruitment and Retention Loan Repayment and Grants Rural Emergency Hospital (REH) Designation Resources Loan Repayment and Grants State Loan Repayment Program (SLRP) SLRP is a multi-discipline, state-based loan repayment program for nurses, clinicians, and physicians working in federally-designated Health Professional Shortage Areas.
Loan repayment is provided through a $1 to $1 match from the federal grant and healthcare site in which the clinician is employed. Participating sites must implement a sliding fee scale for low-income and uninsured patients and accept Medicare and Medicaid. A two-year, full-time service obligation is required for participants.
Recipients may receive loan repayment awards up to $50,000 for oral and behavioral health disciplines and $75,000 for primary care disciplines for a two-year service obligation. Awards may vary due to the amount of money the healthcare site can match, discipline, the competitiveness of the application cycle, and the amount of eligible debt of the clinician. Sites must submit annual reports during the funding period.
Participants currently receiving loan repayment and fulfilling a service obligation are not eligible. For more information, please see below the Frequently Asked Questions. SLRP application and guidance are anticipated to be released September 2026.
