I deleted a post about a new bill that took effect today regarding PA licensure in Florida. I've been informed that the change in verbiage is to allow continued practice for those with degrees from bachelor programs. The phrasing of the bill seemed to support the allowance of PAs you practice once they passed the certification exam without graduating from an accredited program. I wish context had been provided and I'm still leery that it won't be abused.
