PAs work autonomously and remain deeply committed to team-based care. NYSSPA is seeking that decisions about how PAs practice are made at the practice level, not dictated by rigid, outdated state laws. empirereportnewyork.com/pas-… #PAsofNY #NYSBudget

At the end of the day, this is about patients. When PAs can practice to the full extent of their training, patients benefit from faster diagnoses, shorter wait times, and better outcomes. pasforpatients.org/ #PAsforPatients

Outdated laws shouldn’t dictate modern care. Updating PA practice laws will improve efficiency, reduce system strain and cost, and expand access without compromising quality. Policymakers have an opportunity to put patients first while enhancing their timely outcomes.

In many communities, especially rural and underserved areas, access to care is limited. PAs help bridge that gap, expanding capacity and ensuring patients don’t have to wait weeks or travel miles for care. #PAsforPatients

PAs are essential members of the healthcare team, working autonomously with physicians to deliver high-quality, coordinated care. Strengthening this model ensures patients benefit from the full expertise of the care team. pasforpatients.org/ #PAsforPatients

Healthcare shouldn’t be delayed by unnecessary paperwork. Modernizing PA practice laws in New York removes administrative barriers and allows providers to focus on what matters most: patients. Less red tape means faster, more efficient care. pasforpatients.org/
