Overview

To counteract its shortage of health professionals, Maryland has enacted the Health Personnel Shortage Incentive Grant Program to distribute funding to postsecondary institutions in the state.

The Bureau of Labor Statistics has predicted faster-than-average growth in the health administration field, and Maryland should be no exception.
