The 2026 NYS legislative calendar year is around the corner. By passing A.7988/S.7981, New York can empower PAs to practice to the full extent of their training and experience – and in doing so, help ensure that no community is left behind when it comes to access to care. #PAWeek

Across New York, 40% of primary care PAs work in Health Professional Shortage Areas (HPSA). In New York, PA employment is expected to rise 31% by 2030, allowing PAs to meet the expanding needs of the healthcare field. #PAWeek

PAs are trained in a wide spectrum of specialties, providing high-quality preventative care, chronic care management, among other types of care. With broad contributions to NY’s healthcare system, we want to say thank you to all PAs and PA students! #PAWeek

Today commemorates the beginning of #PAWeek! Every day, we recognize the 23,000 New York PAs who dedicate their careers to providing high-quality care. But this week, we especially want to highlight the power of PAs in our communities! #PAsofNY
