Hi friends,

Short-time lurker here but can't seem to find the answer to my question in old posts.

I'm a third year resident pursuing public service loan forgiveness (PSLF) which means I need to work for a non-profit organization to continue to accrue qualifying payments. I am applying for fellowship this year. Does anybody have a list of for-profit teaching hospitals (i.e. hospitals/programs I should avoid applying to)?

My google search has not been overly informative.

I am aware that Drexel/Hahnemann and WSU/DMC are for-profit.

Danke in advance.

Also wondering. I heard MedStar is? That is Georgetown/George Washington Uni.

You should definitely avoid Hahnemann, but that's for other reasons these days!

I think MedStar is non-profit...? At least, according to its Wikipedia page.

Medstar is a nonprofit

For profit teaching hospitals, they never made sense to anyone actually involved in patient care. Can you even count that time you spent there towards pslf? Probably not
