To: Holders and Servicers Participating in the Health Education Assistance
Loan (HEAL) Program
Subject: Assignment
of Judgments on Defaulted HEAL Loans
Lender Policy Memorandum L-2005-5
The purpose of this
policy memorandum is to notify HEAL holders and servicers concerning the
language to be used when assigning judgments on defaulted HEAL loans to
the United States Department of Health and Human Services. Attached is
a suggested form that should be modified to meet the requirements of any
relevant State laws and to reflect the precise form of the judgment.
For instance, if the judgment bifurcates attorney’s fees and court costs
from the principal and interest, then the assignment should indicate that
only the judgment for the principal and interest is being assigned to
the United States.
Beginning May 1, 2005
all default judgment claims received without the proper wording included
in the assignment will be returned without payment. Thank you for your
attention to this matter. If you have any questions, please contact Dick
Horton at (301) 443-1541.
Sincerely,
Henry Lopez, Jr.
Director
Division of Health Careers Diversity and Development
