Abstract
This action removes the outmoded regulations for the Rural Physician Training Grant Program, Definition of "Underserved Rural Community." Funding was authorized at section 749B(i) Public Health Service Act for fiscal years 2010-2013, but never appropriated for the Rural Physician Training Grant Program, and the program was not implemented. Therefore, this regulation is no longer relevant, and HRSA suggested the regulations defining underserved rural communities for the Rural Physician Training Grant Program be removed.
