Participating physicians must also agree to treat a percentage of Medicaid and Medicare patients equal to the percentage in their service area. The initial contract is for two years of service, then a follow-up contract of either one two-year contract or two one-year contracts. The repayment is paid over four years.
Physicians in Pediatrics, OB/GYN, Family Practice, Internal Medicine, or Psychiatry are eligible.
