Currently, there is no national certification or licensing body for Physician Assistants in India. However, some institutions may provide certification upon completion of the course. The profession is regulated in other countries, but India does not have standardized regulations for Physician Assistants yet. It is advisable for students to choose accredited institutions offering recognised degrees.
Certification may become more important in the future as the demand for Physician Assistants grows, and regulations around healthcare professionals become more formalized.
