Description
  • This article written in 1971 by J. Kadish of the AMA and JW Long of the NIH was intended to update physicians about the PA movement. The authors provide a history of use of non-physician personnel to deliver health care services (feldshers, assistant medical officers, etc.), provide a summary of current programs to train PAs, and list issues associated with program development including educational and legal implications. The article ends with a "logical sequence for the development of program elements."
