Of these twelve members, at least nine shall be chosen from among those members of such centers or grantees and who are familiar with the delivery of health care to migratory and seasonal agricultural workers. The remaining three members are individuals who are qualified by training and experience in the medical sciences or in the administration of health programs. Members shall be appointed for terms of 4 years. New members filling a vacancy that occurred prior to expiration of a term may serve only for the remainder of such term. Members may serve after the expiration of their terms until their successors have taken office, but no longer than 120 days. Compensation: Members who are not full-time federal employees shall be paid at the rate of $200 per day including travel time, plus per diem and travel expenses in accordance with Standard Government Travel Regulations. Specifically, HRSA is requesting nominations for: • Board Member/Patient: A nominee must be a member or member-elect of a governing board of an organization receiving funding under section 330(g) of the PHS Act or of other entity assisted under section 330 of the PHS Act.
