Overview of OSIT's Healthcare Workforce Initiatives


Healthcare Workforce Focus

    Graduate Medical Education (GME)

    OSIT, through GME New and Expanded Program Grants, seeks to meet its growing healthcare needs and grow its physician workforce by increasing support for graduate medical training.

      Rural Loan Repayment

      To increase access to high-quality healthcare by growing Nevada's healthcare workforce, particularly in underserved communities, a practitioner may enter the Pennington Rural Health Services Loan Repayment Program (PRHSLRP) by engaging in full-time clinical practice and residing in an assigned rural community in exchange for funding used to repay qualified educational loans.
