Built around introductory courses that orient new PA students to the profession, this comprehensive, up-to-date book traces the origins of physician assisting in the United States and other countries, examining education, career opportunities, and future trends. The 2nd Edition reflects the many changes that have taken place recently in health care and physician assistant programs, curriculum, and the profession. It draws on over 750 published papers related to PAs and other health providers, offering an in-depth exploration of the PA role in primary care, inpatient services, and specialized care, as well as the legal basis of PA deployment and the economics of their utilization. Extensive documented research refers to hundreds of published papers, books, and other media sources on PA education and on the profession, listed in the comprehensive reference section at the end of the book. The authors are well-known, respected experts who are highly regarded in the field. All essential info for the required introductory PA course is covered in one text, which is helpful to both students and instructors. Material has been expanded to cover 14 chapters, with new chapters devoted to Physician Assistant Organizations and Federal Employees, and expanded coverage of important topics in other chapters. All material in tables, figures, and the text itself has been revised and updated based on the most recent research to reflect the many changes in the health care and physician assistant fields since the first edition was published. New issues are addressed that have come out of major changes in the American health care system, incorporating discussions of the latest information and the most current data on the PA profession and PA education. Approximately 25 new illustrations have been added to this edition, covering new material or illustrating concepts that were previously presented only in text discussions.
