The NSHC New Site Application Is Now Open

April 13, 2021
2021 NHSC New Site Application cycle is now open!

Dear RHC,

Becoming a National Health Scholarship Core (NHSC) approved site can help with recruitment of quality providers through the loan repayment program. The application period is only open through Tuesday, May 25, 2021 at 11:59 p.m. E.T.

HSA can take the guesswork out of the application process. We enroll your clinic by collecting necessary documents, completing the application and monitoring the process to full approval as an NHSC site.

Once the application is deemed complete, there is a survey on site to assure the clinic has implemented everything that was agreed to during the application. The site is then deemed approved after the survey. We have templates, policies, needed signs and forms to expedite this process and ensure a successful application and survey.

Contact HSA at info@hsagroup.net for more information or assistance in becoming a National Health Service Corps approved site.
