Section 200-J:5 Large Animal Veterinarian Net Tuition Repayment Program Established.
The postsecondary education commission shall administer a program for the promotion, acquisition, and retention of a large animal veterinarian in the state in those areas where there is a need, with special consideration given to the counties of Coos, Carroll, Grafton, and Belknap. A qualifying veterinarian shall have at least 35 percent of his or her veterinary practice devoted to large animal veterinary medicine in each year in which a net tuition repayment is made. In this subdivision, ""net tuition''means tuition costs for any post-secondary school education that was directed towards the completion of a doctor of veterinary medicine or veterinariae medicinae doctoris. The percentage of a practice devoted to large animal veterinary medicine shall be determined by the time spent in his or her full time practice, including travel, not on income earned.
