The rate cannot be lower than the Department of Treasury's current value of funds rate or the applicable rate determined from the ``Schedule of Certified Interest Rates with Range of Maturities'' unless the Secretary waives interest in whole or part, or a different rate is prescribed by statute, contract, or repayment agreement. The Secretary of the Treasury may revise this rate quarterly. The Department of Health and Human Services publishes this rate in the Federal Register. The current rate of 9\5/8\%, as fixed by the Secretary of the Treasury, is certified for the quarter ended June 30, 2016. This rate is based on the Interest Rates for Specific Legislation, ``National Health Services Corps Scholarship Program (42 U.S.C. 254o(b)(1)(A))'' and ``National Research Service Award Program (42 U.S.C. 288(c)(4)(B)).'' This interest rate will be applied to overdue debt until the Department of Health and Human Services publishes a revision. [[Page 52882]] Dated: July 14, 2016. David C.
