Proposed Project: The Nursing
Education Loan Repayment Program
Application (OMB No. 0915–0140)—
[Revision]
This is a request for revision of the
Nursing Education Loan Repayment
Program (NELRP) application and
participant monitoring forms. The
NELRP is authorized by 42 USC 297n(a)
(section 846(a) of the Public Health
Service Act, as amended by Public Law
107–205, August 1, 2002 and Public
Law 111–148, March 23, 2010).
Under the NELRP, registered nurses
are offered the opportunity to enter into
a contractual agreement with the
Secretary to receive loan repayment for
up to 85 percent of their qualifying
educational loan balance as follows: 30
percent each year for the first 2 years
and 25 percent for the optional third
year. In exchange, the nurses agree to
serve full-time for a minimum of 2 years
as a registered nurse at a health care
facility with a critical shortage of nurses
or as nurse faculty at an eligible school
of nursing. The NELRP forms provide
information that is needed for selecting
participants, repaying qualifying loans
for education, and monitoring
compliance with service requirements.
The NELRP forms include the following:
The NELRP Application, the Loan
Information and Verification form, the
Employment Verification form, the
Authorization for Release of
Employment Information form, the
Authorization to Release Information
form, the Certification Regarding
Debarment, Suspension,
Disqualification and Related Matters
form, the Certification of Accreditation
Status for School of Nursing Education
Programs form, and the NELRP
Application Checklist and SelfCertification form.
The program is expecting the number
of applications to increase to
approximately 8,000 annual
respondents. This is an increase of 2,500
respondents for registered nurses at
health care facilities and 500
respondents for nurse faculty at eligible
schools of nursing.
