PA and AA regulation
In July 2019, the Department of Health and Social Care (DHSC), with the support of the four UK governments, asked us to regulate two groups of medical associate professions (MAPs) – physician associates (PAs) and anaesthesia associates (AAs). Over the next year we’ll be designing the processes and policies needed to regulate PAs and AAs.
