Who We Are

The National Health Service Corps (NHSC) supports more than 17,000 primary care medical, dental, and behavioral health providers through scholarships and loan repayment programs. For over 50 years, we’ve increased access to quality health care in communities with significant health professional shortages.

NHSC participants:

  • Serve at more than 7,800 community health care sites seeing nearly 18 million patients.
  • Provide care to patients regardless of their ability to pay for services.
  • Include more than 7,900 behavioral health providers who increase access to much-needed mental health and opioid use disorder treatment in hard-hit areas of the country.
