Physicians for a Healthy California’s CalHealthCares Loan Repayment Program has extended the application deadline through Friday, March 17, 2023.  Program information and application resources are available at CalHealthCares.org to assist with the application process.

CalHealthCares has approximately $54 million for physicians and $9 million for dentists to fund loan repayments of up to $300,000 in exchange for a five-year commitment to providing care for Medi-Cal patients. Qualifying dentists can also apply for practice support grants in exchange for a 10-year commitment. The program is funded by Proposition 56 (2016) voter-approved tobacco tax revenues.
