To date, the program has funded over 500 primary care providers in rural communities throughout the state.

Since 1990, 89% of physicians who were awarded incentive grants are actively practicing in South Carolina.Item South Carolina Rural Dentist Loan Repayment Program: Program Handbook(2024-10) South Carolina Area Health Education ConsortiumIn July of 2005, the Rural Dentist Loan Repayment Program was established by the South Carolina Legislature.
