MedSch loan Forgiveness: any reason for not going for MD now?
----------------------------------------------------------------------
Public Service Loan Forgiveness (PSLF):

CCRAA authorizes a new "public service" loan forgiveness program, effective July 1, 2009.

Physicians will be eligible for the program after 10 years of loan repayment while practicing in a "public service" job. The definition of "public service" includes 501(c)(3) non-profit organizations, faculty in "high-needs areas (as determined by the Secretary of Education), and service at private organizations providing "public health" or "emergency management" services. HEAO clarifies the definition of public health to include "full-time professionals engaged in health care practitioner occupations and health care support occupations, as such terms are defined by the Bureau of Labor Statistics." Only Direct Loans are eligible for forgiveness, but borrowers may consolidate other federal loans under a single Direct Consolidation Loan. Physicians that participate in IBR could save over $160,000 on their total loan repayment.
-------------------------------------------------------
The 10-yr example:

Plastic and Reconstructive Surgery Resident: 7 yrs and Fellow: 3 yrs.

During these 10 yrs, monthly loan repayment is as low as $100.
