    Authority: Sec. 215 of the Public Health Service Act 58 Stat. 690,

    These regulations apply to the Special Repayment Program authorized 
under section 204 of Pub. L. 100-177, which provides a time-limited 
opportunity for persons who were, on November 1, 1987, in breach of a 
written contract under the Public Health and National Health Service 
Corps Scholarship Training Program or the National Health Service Corps 
Scholarship Program to satisfy their scholarship obligations through 
full-time clinical service. These regulations do not apply to any Public 
Health and National Health Service Corps Scholarship Training Program or 
National Health Service Corps Scholarship Program obligation which the 
Secretary has determined was completely satisfied through service or 
monetary payment prior to November 1, 1987. The purpose of this program 
is to supply trained health professionals for the National Health 
Service Corps, which is used by the Secretary to improve the delivery of 
health services in health manpower shortage areas.
