TRENTON – Legislation sponsored by Senator Loretta Weinberg to expand the State’s partial loan reimbursement program to include additional primary care practitioners who practice in underserved areas was approved by the Senate Education Committee today.
“There is a shortage of health practitioners in many urban and rural communities throughout New Jersey,” said Senator Weinberg, D-Bergen. “By extending the current loan reimbursement program we can help bring health services to our underserved areas.”
