Has anyone applied to this and had a positive experience. From my research it appears that you will get a monthly stipend during residency training if you agree to work for HCA (Hospital Corporation of America) for 2 years. The key is you have to be in an in demand field (surgery, psychiatry, family medicine, etc.) If you decide not to work for HCA after receiving the stipend, you will have to pay the money back in full immediately or pay it back over the course of 2 years with 12% interest. Other specific information is listed on the website if you are interested. There was a post from 2010 with someone asking about this stipend, but no updates since then. Anyone make this commitment or know someone who did?

- Stipend funds are 100% forgiven provided the recipient is on the active medical staff at an HCA-affiliated Hospital for 2 years
- No extra duty/call related requirements - not while in training and not while in practice
- Stipend recipients can go anywhere in the US where there is an HCA hospital and need for their specialty
