Episode 12: Increasing Access to Care Worldwide
As our health issues are on the rise globally, Physician Assistants are integral to expanding the workforce thereby increasing access to care. This episode, we chat with a fellow Physician Assistant, Yale’s Assistant Professor Mary Showstark on expanding the healthcare workforce globally in efforts to meet the health demands of individuals and that of our entire society. Mary shares the concerted efforts of herself and others on global mid-level provider programs that are graduating qualified Physician Assistants, Community Health Officers, Physician Associates, Clinical Officers and Associates which in turn expands the workforce.
