Secretary Sebelius: Join the Discussion on Health Reform
We want to hear what you think about health reform. Send us your story,
proposals and ideas...
President Obama has issued a homework assignment to health care providers
to come up with a plan to save health care dollars, while meeting the needs
of the 15 + million US residents without health insurance. Please contact
the white house over the week-end with your thoughts. Request that Physician
Assistants be at the table as decisions on health care providers are being
discussed.
Physician Assistant Programs have a long and successful history of training
and graduating outstanding clinicians who work in a variety of medical
care settings with diverse patient populations. Physician Assistant graduates
are trained not only for clinical excellence, but also in the breadth of
competencies required to be professional leaders in medicine within the
rapidly changing, medical environments of the 21st century. Currently there
are 75,000 Physician Assistant graduates with about 5,000 new graduates
added each year.
Physician Assistants (PA) are important members of the military healthcare
team and provide a broad range of medical services traditionally performed
by physicians. They are the primary medical provider to soldiers
in battalion and division level units and also provide garrison healthcare
to soldiers, family members, and other eligible beneficiaries. The
Army PA has served the nation in all conflicts and peacekeeping missions
since the Vietnam War.
PAs often are the principal care providers in rural or inner city clinics
where a physician is present for only one or two days each week. Many PAs
work in primary care specialties, such as general internal medicine, pediatrics,
and family medicine. Other specialty areas include general and thoracic
surgery, emergency medicine, orthopedics, and geriatrics. PAs specializing
in surgery provide preoperative and postoperative care and often work as
first assistants during major surgery.
If you have a story to tell - a new tracking system to manage chronically
ill clients, screening tools that you have implemented, etc. now is the
time to share your successes.
