Strengthening Pathways to Health Professions Act
HR 593 exempts certain health profession loan repayments and scholarship payments from federal income tax. It applies to individuals participating in Public Health Service Act programs (like sections 338B, 846, and 338K) and state programs designed to increase healthcare access in underserved areas. The bill also includes scholarships under the Native Hawaiian Health Care Improvement Act in this tax exclusion. These changes take effect for payments received after the bill's enactment date.
