Important point. These contracts requiring PAs to see undifferentiated patients only exist because if they did not stipulate this, there would be no economic value. But how do we square this with the fact that every patient seen has to be seen again by a GP afterwards?

I would urge the @gmcuk to stop using the term โ€œMedical Professionalsโ€ Bar confusion for the public as well as creating more divisions between Doctors & MAPs? It achieves nothing I was assured it would be used sparingly when raised to senior executives. Please stop doing so

@defpavsdr @medicalmodelbri @NHSEngland @rcgp Now try asking the PA where the piriform fossa is, how to determine correct placement of the NG tube on an x-ray or why they should be wary of a patient with black eye(s) with regard to an NG tube. Sorry but PAs just do not have anywhere near the knowledge of med students.

@avonroon @UKGastroDr hey Von Goon, why is the funding for primary care being used to do secondary care work? Would you accept responsibility for remotely supervising the PAs doing this from your hospital? Actually, what are your conflicts of interest with this initiative?

@Dr_Done_ @PPaauk Flight attendants don't tell the captain the flight plan. We don't need PA input on PA supervision.

@hkg294 No Heather, steaming ahead when there are clear problems with how things are run at the moment is exactly the wrong thing to do. @RCoANews is right: halt all further expansion of the Assistant role, conduct an in-depth review of current practice, define scope (set by doctors).

@EileenBurns13 "Of course would not suggest PAs replace doctors. However, let's use PAs to replace doctors." Shameful, Dr. Burns
