Abstract: HRSA's National Health Service Corps (NHSC) and the Nurse Corps Scholarship and Loan Repayment Programs are committed to improving the health of the nation's underserved by uniting communities in need with caring health professionals and by supporting communities' efforts to build better systems of care. The NHSC and Nurse Corps Interest Capture Form, which can be accessed on the HRSA website at https://bhw.hrsa.gov/about-us/ask-question, is an optional form that a health profession student, licensed clinician, faculty member, clinical site administrator, or other interested individual can complete and submit to HRSA online. The purpose of the form is to enable individuals and clinical sites to ask questions about the NHSC and/or Nurse Corps Scholarship and Loan Repayment Programs, and to provide their contact information so that HRSA may provide them with periodic program updates and other general information via email. Completed forms will contain information such as the names and roles of the individual(s), their phone number(s) and email address(es), and the HRSA program(s) in which they are interested or about which they have questions.
