I wanted to start this thread b/c I couldnt sort through all of the questions on the other thread which mainl had to do with the application. For those who are already NHSC scholars let's ask specific questions to help us understand what our future will be..
1) How many hours per week does a NHSC have to work? Does it depend on the site? Is there time to do research on the side at a univ?
2) How much are NHSC scholars getting paid in different areas? (ie, Oakland, CA; Alaska; Puerto Rico; Guam ( heard Guam gets $15,000/ yr.))
3) Are there any exceptions to the 5 specialities? I have heard of some doing research on underserved populations and health care.
4) How realistic is it to start your own private practice? What are the rules?
5) Alternative medicine at a NHSC site. Is this accepteable?
