摘要
This article offers an update on physician associate (PA) growth and development in the New Zealand healthcare system. New Zealand has a shortage of healthcare workers and PAs offer a solution. Regulation is in process and will allow a full scope of practice for PAs. A New Zealand-based PA training program also is being considered when regulation has progressed.
