In the previous issue of the Special Delivery in article, HPSA scores: What does it mean to me and my clinic?, it is stated “This score is a federal designation assigned to a geographic area, population group (such as low-income), correctional facility, state or county mental health hospital, or private, public or nonprofit facility that can demonstrate a shortage of health professionals in the service area.”

A mistake was found in this statement as private clinics are not eligible for a HPSA score unless they are designated as a non-profit. We regret any inconvenience this may have caused.
