Dear Colleague, Thank you for your interest in the Loan Repayment Program (LRP). A career with the Indian Health Service (IHS) is an opportunity for professional and personal fulfillment — a chance to experience the rewards of working with an appreciative, underserved population while living in some of the most beautiful areas of the country. The costs of a health professional education are high, but the LRP can give you the financial freedom to pursue the future you’ve envisioned for yourself: a career with purpose and a sense of mission, treating patients who truly need you, and doing it all with adventure in your life. It’s no wonder that health professionals consider the LRP to be one of the most significant benefits IHS offers. On behalf of the Indian Health Service, thank you for your interest in providing health care to American Indians and Alaska Natives. Robert E. Pittman, R.Ph., M.P.H. Rear Admiral, USPHS Assistant Surgeon General Director, Division of Health Professions Support
