DCAPA Members,
The AAPA House of Delegates (HOD) today passed a resolution affirming "physician associate" as the official title of the PA profession by a majority vote 198 to 68. The HOD vote only starts the process; the next steps will be determined by the AAPA Board. They will determine if or how this title change will be implemented.
Below are the results of our memeber survey:
73% Physician Associate
27% Physician Assistant
