962+to Section 16-47-81, Code of Alabama 1975, by dividing the population of the county by the per

965+consider the percentage of dentists in a county that are over the age of 65, the probability of
966+economic success and the proximity of a county to a major metropolitan area in determining the
967+counties eligible for the loan recipient. Annually the Board shall compile a list of ten

969+of 20 hours a week on an annual basis practicing direct patient care in the designated county
970+for a minimum of 5 years to qualify for forgiveness of the loan. The Board shall file a report
