The rural health care practitioner tax credit may be claimed and allowed in an amount up to $5,000 for all eligible physicians, osteopathic physicians, dentists, clinical psychologist, podiatrists, and optometrists who qualify, and up to $3,000 for all eligible dental hygienists, phy- sician assistants, certified nurse-midwives, certified registered nurse anesthetists and clinical nurse specialists who qualify. If the amount of the credit claimed exceeds a taxpayer’s tax liability for the tax year in which the credit is being claimed, the excess may be carried forward for three consecutive tax years. To qualify for the rural health care practitioner tax credit, an eligible health care practitioner shall have provided health care during a tax year for at least 2,080 hours at a practice site located in an approved rural health care underserved area. An eligible rural health care practitioner who provides health care services for at least 1,040 hours, but less than 2,080 hours, at a practice site located in an approved rural health care underserved area during a tax year is eligible for one-half of the credit amount. Before an eligible health care practitioner may claim the rural health care practitioner tax credit, the practitioner shall submit an application to the New Mexico Department of Health (NMDOH) that describes the practitioner’s clinical practice and contains additional information that NMDOH may require.
