One of the primary reasons for establishing the North Carolina AHEC system in 1972 was to increase the number of primary care physicians trained in the state with a focus on placing graduates in underserved communities.

Funds are provided to each of the four medical schools and their primary care departments to expand the training of primary care residents, and to enhance the possibility that graduates will settle in the state. In the Northwest AHEC, these funds provide a stipend based upon the number of approved full time employees in the primary care department residency programs.
