Synopsis As Introduced
Amends the Health Services Education Grants Act. Provides that the Board of Higher Education is authorized to distribute funds to non-profit health service educational institutions in the State by grants under the Act (now, the Board is authorized to distribute funds equitably to the institutions). Provides that all grants under the Act shall be administered subject to funding availability and that nothing in the Act shall be construed to mandate that grants be given to any one class of institution or to every institution within a class. Provides that in determining grant eligibility and amounts, the Board shall consider public demand for health services, workforce needs and shortages, and programmatic priorities. Effective immediately.

House Amendment No. 1
Further amends the Health Services Education Grants Act. Provides that at the discretion of the Board of Higher Education, program priority grants based on State residents enrolled in eligible programs that address public demand for health services, workforce needs and shortages, and other programmatic priorities may be made for a class of institution. Provides that every institution offering eligible, accredited programs that received grant support in fiscal year 2005 shall continue to receive grant support at a comparable level in subsequent years. Removes the provision that requires the Board to consider public demand for health services, workforce needs and shortages, and programmatic priorities in determining grant eligibility and amounts.
