I feel for NCCPA they are an unnecessary burden financially and once passing the PANCE that should be it. This recertification process is a money grab. AAPA I feel does try to help PAs
I agree 100%. I received a notice from NCCPA that I haven't logged in my CME for the year yet. First of all I know because I do it all at once, second I think they are just wanting to keep tabs on us without saying as much
I feeling like they worry too much about assistant/associate, instead of pushing parity with NPs. We lag behind in independent practice, compact licensure, and doctoral degree programs.
agreed
Because they dropped the ball when NPs were pushing for full autonomy. Hospitals and private practices are picking up on the less paperwork and supervisor requirements which leads to PAs losing out on the jobs which they are well qualified for.
Some people have already noticed this at VAs, they are preferentially hiring more NPs over PAs for this reason alone
We essentially got screwed regardless of what our opinions are on supervision requirements.
