Michigan Behavioral Health Loan Repayment Program
The Michigan Behavioral Health Loan Repayment Program (BHLRP) is a medical education debt repayment program for healthcare providers to practice in healthcare shortage areas in Michigan. Eligible providers will receive student loan repayment for providing mental health services in eligible nonprofit practice sites or public school-based systems for at least 2 years.
Eligible applicants are school-based and community-based providers that are working on a full-time basis at an approved eligible practice site. Complete lists of eligible providers and facilities are available in the application instructions.
Applicants are rank in order of priority:
- Child providers in a community mental health service program
- Child providers in a public school-based setting
- Child providers in any nonprofit, eligible setting
- Adult providers in a community mental health service program
- Adult providers in any nonprofit, eligible setting
Up to $300,000 over a period of up to 10 years of participation
Initial 2-year agreement amounts are determined by dividing the amount of eligible debt, up to the $300,000 maximum, by the 10 years of eligible program participation and multiplying by 2.
