Theres also the NHSC loan repayment program. You can be either a civilian or PHS Officer while enrolled in this program - basically you work with underserved populations and, depending on their "score" you can get more money per year. I believe VA facilities also qualify for this repayment program. Theres also a state part of this program that allows you to work in other areas.

The Indian Health Loan Repayment Program (cannot do in conjuntion with the HRSA program). It appears to be similar to the HRSA program but youre limited to working within IHS facilities/populations.
Woah. Now that is very interesting. Thank you for sharing. Do you have experience with PHS?
