About this program
The Department of Health and Human Services Health Resources and Services Administration operated the ARRA State Loan Repayment Program (CFDA 93.402) to fund state-administered loan repayment initiatives for health professionals committing to practice in health professional shortage areas and underserved populations, with the most recent grant award disbursed on September 30, 2009.
This program is inactive. All 17 documented awards were made in a single cohort on September 30, 2009, under the American Recovery and Reinvestment Act stimulus funding. No awards have been disbursed in the past 17 years, and no recent grant opportunities are posted. The program was designed as a time-limited stimulus intervention; no indication exists that it has been reauthorized or remains an active funding vehicle.
The program funded state-operated educational loan repayment programs for health professionals—physicians, nurses, dentists, and allied health workers—in exchange for commitment to serve in health professional shortage areas. Awards ranged from $26 thousand to $1.935 million, with combined federal obligations of $3.9 million across the 17 Project Grants. Representative awards included Project Grant H5BHP16807 at $1.935 million, Project Grant H5BHP16811 at $1 million, and Project Grant H5BHP18953 at $600 thousand. All funding came from HHS Health Resources and Services Administration.
Do not pursue this program. The stimulus-era authorization has expired without evidence of reactivation or successor funding authority. Eligible applicants historically were states operating loan repayment programs, but the closed award window and absence of recent solicitations render this a historical reference rather than a current opportunity.
