Tap into New Opportunities at Two of the Largest PA Conferences in the U.S.!

• GAPA´s conferences welcome several hundred dedicated, enthusiastic physician assistants from around the country.
• PAs are eager to exchange ideas and experiences with their colleagues; excited about catching up on the latest news, ideas and treatment techniques; ready to learn from the top experts in the medical profession; and, most importantly to you, intent on discovering all about your products and services.
• GAPA is one of the very few organizations that accredits not only physician assistants but also nurse practitioners.

PAs Are a Solution to Today´s Healthcare Trends

As fewer MDs practice primary care medicine, the number of PAs is increasing to fill the primary care shortage. In 1997, there were more than 2,300 graduates of U.S. medical schools who entered family medicine. By 2003, that number had dropped by half. By 2020, the shortfall of general practice physicians is expected to reach 40,000.

Reach Out to the Medical Professionals Who Make Decisions!

• PAs write more than 10% of all prescriptions.
• The Department of Labor has rated the PA profession as the third fastest growing occupation in the U.S.

99% of GAPA conference attendees surveyed learned about new medical products and services in the Exhibition Hall.

Reach Your Target Market

Physician assistants write more than 330 million prescriptions a year and see more than 257 million patients a year. They perform medical and surgical procedures, are employed in rural and urban areas, and work in settings from hospitals to solo practices. If your company markets to physicians it should also market to PAs.
