I know these programs are more prevalent in the primary care fields, but are there any programs that pay back med school loans for working in an underserved area as an anestheiologist?

I doubt it since we already have such a high salary and ability to make more money per diem if we want to.

there are the only one I know about for sure is the state of wyoming. However, I have heard plenty of rumors about other rural states. I read something about NOLA but I don't know if that includes gas.

On the interview trail, a resident mentioned signing with a private practice group that paid off his loans. Of course he had to commit a number of years and if he left the practice early would be reponsible for paying the group back x amount of dollars subtracted from the length he was in the group.

I do remember him also mentioning his loans were in the 200K range.

Has anyone heard of simiular situations???

I also think there are loan Forgivness programs for academic folks looking to do some research...
