Dear Family Medicine Resident, We are excited to present the Heartland Health Alliance (HHA) Family Medicine Reinvestment Program (FMRP). The program was established in 2018 through a collaboration between the Lincoln Medical Education Partnership (LMEP), Bryan Health, and the HHA. The program’s purpose is to invest in rural family medicine physicians by supporting residents during their three-year LMEP residency. Twenty-eight (28) member hospitals from the HHA have come together to fund stipends for participating residents. In these rural communities, you will leverage your diverse family medicine skills and develop deep rooted relationships, all while making a significant impact on rural medicine.

In exchange for recruitment to one of the 28 participating HHA hospitals, residents can expect: • A $1,000 monthly stipend distributed during your three (3) years of residency with the signing of a promissory note. Two (2) years of practice at a participating hospital is required to satisfy the promissory note. • If you execute the Agreement to participate in the program within the first thirteen (13) months of your residency training at LMEP, the Monthly Stipend will be retroactive to the beginning of your residency training. • Dr. Sabrina Cerny, LMEP Program Director and Dr. Doug States, LMEP Faculty Physician are available to discuss this program. • Moonlighting opportunities are available in several hospitals within the program. • A Physician champion is available at each participating hospital to provide you with firsthand experiences and to answer your questions about practicing medicine in their community. • Previous program participants are available to share their experience. Fourteen (14) residents from LMEP have joined and signed with a participating hospital. We wish you the best as you train at LMEP and begin your search for the perfect rural organization to join post-residency.

Contact: If you have questions regarding the program and/or opportunities, please contact Zach Witt.

Sullivan County Memorial Hospital Milan, MO

Milan, MO The Sullivan County Memorial Hospital, located in the county seat of Milan, has been an integral part of Sullivan County since it was established in 1953. This thriving rural area has experienced significant growth and diversification since the opening of a Smithfield pork processing plant in the mid 1990’s. Milan offers safe and affordable housing, excellent schools and friendly neighborhoods. Larger communities of Kirksville and Trenton are 30 minutes away; however, Milan offers grocery and retail shopping along with restaurants, a public swimming pool, a golf course and the development of a 2600-acre reservoir to open in 2026, which will provide a water source and recreational hub.

Sullivan County Memorial Hospital SCMH has been certified as a Critical Access Hospital since 2000 and follows its mission to provide quality health care to the community through services such as Acute Care, an Emergency Department, three Rural Health Clinics, in-house Cardiac Rehabilitation, Speech, Occupational and Physical Therapy, and Skilled Care provided within the hospital. Rheumatology, Urology, Podiatry, Orthopedics, Wound Care, OB/GYN, and Pain Management are offered as visiting specialties. Services are provided and overseen by a team of three Physicians, collaborating closely with five Advanced Nursing Practitioners. SCMH opened a retail pharmacy in February 2025. Perhaps the most inspiring developments are the conversations now taking place around the construction of a new hospital – an ambitious vision that promises to transform health care access for our community. While nearly 200 rural US hospitals have closed in the past two decades, SCMH remains a vital, growing asset to residents of Sullivan and surrounding counties and has a bright, promising future.
