Understanding the Impact of NPs and PAs in Healthcare Delivery

Did you know that there are currently approximately 115,000 Nurse Practitioners (NPs) and 63,000 Physician Assistants (PAs) in practice? Every year, around 5,000 to 6,000 NPs and 4,300 PAs enter the workforce, contributing to over 494 million prescriptions written by PAs and more than 250 million by NPs annually. Patient visits involving NPs and PAs tend to last longer than those with physicians alone, highlighting their crucial role in enhancing patient care. Join us for engaging workshops and improve your understanding of these healthcare professionals.
