N.Y. Comp. Codes R. & Regs. Tit. 10 § 47-1.6 - Service obligation
(a)
Service obligation. A State Health Service Corps award recipient is required to
work full-time in a designated facility or agency for 18 months in the
profession he/she has received an award. A recipient will be required to
complete his/her service obligation by working from the reporting date to
completion of his/her service obligation without interruption.
(b) Reporting date. A State Health Service
Corps recipient is required to begin his/her service obligation within 60 days
of either completing the education for which he/she has received a State Health
Service Corps award, or receiving a license in that profession whichever comes
later, except that the reporting date shall not exceed:
(1) 30 months from the effective date of the
first scholarship award if the recipient has received two awards; and
(2) 18 months if the recipient has received
one award.
(i) In the case of a recipient
whose award has been deferred, the period of time of the approved deferral
shall not be included in the calculation of the reporting date described in
this section.
(ii) If no
appropriate position exists in any designated facilities or agencies for the
recipient, the reporting date shall be extended until such a position becomes
available.
(c) Alternative service. In the event a
recipient fails to qualify for licensure or is unable to fulfill the service
obligation in the profession for which the State Health Service Corps
scholarship award is given, the Commissioner of Health, in consultation with
the State Health Service Corps advisory committee, may permit the individual to
provide alternative service which would meet the intent of the public service
obligation.
(d) Service
performance. Each recipient while employed in a designated facility or agency
shall abide by all of the performance rules or requirements of that agency.
Loss of employment due to unsatisfactory performance will result in
default.
