What are the eligibility requirements for an NHSC LRP community site?
An eligible NHSC LRP community site is a public, nonprofit or private health facility that provides a continuum of services, including comprehensive primary health care and appropriate referrals or arrangements for specialty and inpatient care to individuals in a health professional shortage area (HPSA) regardless of the patients ability to pay for the services. To be considered, the site must submit an NHSC Recruitment and Retention Assistance Application to the LA Bureau of Primary Care and Rural Health who will in turn submit the application to the NHSC for approval.
