A prime example of "never stop learning." As a 67 year old who holds a BS in biology, none of these certifications existed when I was in school. I would think schools and the debt that students are getting into to attain these certifications is BIG business! Thank you very much for providing this explanation.

It is big business

This whole medical business, from services through insurance, to the backroom financial operations of hospitals, and pharmaceutical groups is all very confusing to a regular patient like me. I really appreciate your videos.

I wish the US would allow HS students to apply to medical school immediately after graduation. Many countries (with great healthcare) allow their students to apply to Med School at 18. I wanted to be an anesthesiologist but just the sheer years of commitment, cost, and honesty competition dissuaded me. I am now in a CRNA program (1st year) after working as an RN and making well above average pay. The money I earned allowed me to afford over half of my tuition! We need more MDs and DOs, but they have to make it attractive for prospective scholars.

Hello Dr. Bricker. Very helpful video so thank you for making it. Just one common mistake that I wanted to point out is that in "PA" the P is "Physician" and not "Physician's" or "Physicians" so it not possessive or plural in nature.

What do you think of healthcare c suite utilizing NPs and PAs to decrease the numbers of doctors (think doctor pay) needed on site?

When I started making you tube videos, I said no one is making the kind of videos I would like to, but I was wrong, Dr. Bricker is doing it. I am glad the APPs can do "on the job" training for their jobs and I think they should get paid the same if they are providing the same quality of work. However I think that for hospital systems the main driver is economic. I have said this in meetings and have been sternly almost reprimanded that this was absurd. APPs are a better value if you can replace anybody with anybody.

Medicare calls them QHPs or NPPs.

Physician associate? What do they do? They assist physicians. Keep the titles simple, let's not confuse the public with the term associate. It's physician assistant
