Rural
Physician Incentive Revolving Fund:
The Rural Physician Incentive Revolving Fund is an initiative created to
encourage physicians to locate and to remain in the practice of primary care
(family practice, general practice, pediatrics, internal medicine, or OB/GYN)
in an Arkansas rural community for a period of four years. In order to
enhance recruitment and retention of physicians in rural communities, each
physician funded will be awarded grants totaling $55,000 over a four year
period for continuous service in a qualifying full-time rural practice
community.
