Iowa PA-PAC
Iowa PAs are changing the healthcare landscape and increasing access to care in the state. Since the first generation of PAs, there have been significant legislative changes that have shaped how PAs practice today.
PAs can now:
- Bill private insurance and Medicare and Medicaid
- Be a primary provider
- Write prescriptions (and you can write them without restrictions or cosignature requirements)
- Assist in surgery and bill for the service
- Own your own practice
- Work without supervision
The work to protect and grow the PA profession will depend on future legislative successes. Your contribution to the PAC will drive this success.

IPAS monitors legislative reimbursement issues and supports changes that improve the profession's ability to provide quality patient care. With a consistent and unified voice, it is also effective in getting heard with state boards and commissions. IPAS has a membership of over 400 professionals.
