Bill Summary

For legislation for reimbursement for costs of the ‘Learning Contract’,- reports the accompanying bill (Senate, No. 2466).

AI Summary

This bill amends Chapter 75 of the General Laws to provide for reimbursement of costs related to the "Learning Contract" program at the University of Massachusetts Medical School. The Learning Contract requires students admitted in 2015 and subsequent years to provide at least 4 years of service in primary care, public/community service, or underserved areas within the Commonwealth after completing their studies. The Commonwealth, rather than the medical school, will bear the cost of these learning contracts. If a student fails to fulfill the payback service, they must repay the difference between the tuition paid and the regular tuition amount, plus 8% interest, to the medical school, which will then remit the repayment to the Commonwealth.
