HPSP QUESTION

Started by boboo
This forum made possible through the generous support of SDN members, donors, and sponsors. Thank you.
If i understand it correctly, the answer is yes and no.

Yes, it counts toward paying back your HPSP years, BUT since you are being trained, you acrue an additional year of payback. So basically it evens out to you still owing that year.

I concur with Homunculus. I just look at it as not doing any net payback until after internship and residency.
