PAs in Minnesota have to practice under a practice agreement with a physician. In general, PAs in Minnesota have advanced practice authority. Advanced authority means that PAs can practice to the full extent of their medical education, but they still must comply with administrative requirements.
In Minnesota, physician assistants (PAs) must complete 50 continuing education (CE) credits every two years to renew their license. This requirement ensures they remain up-to-date on medical knowledge and provide high-quality care to patients. These requirements are essential for ensuring PAs provide the best possible care to their patients.
The highest paid PA specialty is cardiovascular surgery at $152,500 annually, according to the American Academy of Physician Associates.
The employment for PAs is expected to grow 27% between 2022 to 2032. This is much faster than other jobs. The Bureau of Labor Statistics estimates that there are 12,200 openings for PAs every year, over the course of the decade.
