13 States to Honor PA Licensure Compact 

As of September 9, 2024, thirteen states have adopted the Physician Assistant (PA) Licensure Compact, allowing licensed PAs to practice across state lines without obtaining multiple licenses. The participating states include Colorado, Delaware, Maine, Minnesota, Nebraska, Ohio, Oklahoma, Tennessee, Utah, Virginia, Washington, West Virginia, and Wisconsin. Additionally, New Jersey, North Carolina, and Michigan are considering joining. The PA Compact Commission will convene this month to start implementing the compact, a process that may take up to two years. This initiative aims to improve healthcare delivery efficiency and address the increasing demand for PAs.
