About the Iowa Physician Assistant Society
Founded in 1974 as a constituent chapter of the American Academy of Physician Assistants, the Iowa Physician Assistant Society (IPAS) primarily aims to help PAs provide accessible, affordable, quality patient care. As with any professional society, members working together make a difference. IPAS monitors legislative reimbursement issues and supports changes that improve the profession's ability to provide quality patient care. A consistent and unified voice is also effective in getting heard by state boards and commissions. IPAS has a membership of over 400 professionals.
Purpose
The IPSA was founded for these purposes:
- To provide the organization's membership with an annual forum to consider issues affecting PAs and their patients.
- To maintain a job bank for Iowa.
- To help PAs, health professionals, and health organizations by disseminating health care information about the delivery and quality of health care within Iowa.
- To provide policy legislative advocacy on issues important to the PA profession in Iowa.
- To provide continuing education opportunities at reasonable costs for PAs in Iowa.
