description Background and Aims Health policymakers face challenges in designing compulsory plan packages for medical students to encourage them to work in disadvantaged regions. Using a discrete choice experiment, this study assessed the preferences of medical students for selecting the compulsory service plan packages in Guilan Province, Iran. Methods In total, 374 medical students responded to a survey inquiring about salary, distance from their residency city, availability of welfare amenities, work difficulty, the developmental status of their workplace, contract duration, and preference for urban or rural work settings. Results The study revealed that students favor a compulsory service package that provides higher salaries and shorter contract duration. They also show a preference for working within their home province over other factors. For the opportunity to serve in their city of residence, they would forgo an average of US$77.93 per month. Conclusion While financial incentives were the primary consideration for medical students when choosing compulsory service packages, a range of nonfinancial factors significantly influenced their decisions as well.
