  • Title: 30% of Recent Family Medicine Graduates Report Participation in Loan Repayment Programs.
    Author: Nagaraj M, Coffman M, Bazemore A.
    Journal: J Am Board Fam Med; 2018; 31(4):501-502. PubMed ID: 29986974.
    Abstract:
    Rising educational debt may discourage entry into primary care and practice in safety net settings, but little is known about participation in loan repayment programs that are thought to be part of the solution. A survey of 2052 recent family physician residency graduates found that 30% pursued loan repayment, only a portion of which is tied to service obligations, suggesting opportunities for research and areas for the attention of policymakers.
