In New Jersey, the average PA salary is $148,350 a year, according to the Bureau of Labor Statistics.
PAs must practice under the supervision of a licensed physician. In general, PAs in New Jersey have moderate practice authority. Moderate authority refers to the fact that state law requires additional administrative burdens. This impacts the practice environment and limits the PA.
Physician assistants (PAs) in New Jersey are required to complete 50 continuing education (CE) hours every two years to maintain their license.
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.
The highest paid PA specialty is cardiovascular surgery at $152,500 annually, according to the American Academy of Physician Associates.
