National PA Partner Organizations
The major national PA organizations, other than AAPA, include the Physician Assistant Education Association (PAEA) representing the PA educational programs, the National Commission on Certification of PAs (NCCPA) which is the certification organization for individual PAs, and the Accreditation Review Commission on Education for the Physician Assistant (ARC-PA) which accredits PA educational programs.
Campaigns and Coalitions
AAPA is frequently asked to become an active partner in national campaigns to improve patient care. By working on both the national and local levels, AAPA can educate other providers and the public about the role of PAs in expanding access to quality medical care. The Campaigns and Coalitions page contains information on some campaigns seeking PA assistance and involvement.
