Physician Assistant Jobs in Pennsylvania: Frequently Asked Questions
How do you become a physician assistant in Pennsylvania?
To work as a physician assistant in Pennsylvania, you must hold an active license issued by the Pennsylvania State Board of Medicine, which requires graduation from an accredited PA program and passing the PANCE exam administered by NCCPA. After licensure, you can apply for prescriptive authority through the same board. Pennsylvania does not require a separate registration for most outpatient or hospital-based PA practice, so licensure through the State Board of Medicine is the primary credential to secure before applying.
How much do physician assistants make in Pennsylvania?
Physician assistants in Pennsylvania earn a median of about $127,070 a year, based on May 2025 Bureau of Labor Statistics wage data, ranging from around $99,050 for the lowest 10% to over $158,690 for the top 10%. Pay rises with experience, specialty, and employer.
Which companies hire physician assistants in Pennsylvania?
Employers hiring physician assistants in Pennsylvania right now include JPMorganChase, UPMC, and TD, based on current listings on Migrate Mate as of October 2026. Pennsylvania's large integrated health systems, regional hospital networks, and expanding urgent care groups make the state one of the more consistent markets for ongoing PA recruitment.
Which Pennsylvania cities have the most physician assistant jobs?
Philadelphia, Pittsburgh, and Harrisburg have the most physician assistant openings in Pennsylvania. Philadelphia leads because of its concentration of academic medical centers, specialty practices, and health system campuses, while Pittsburgh's strength in cardiac care and oncology at UPMC and Allegheny Health Network drives steady volume, and mid-sized markets like Allentown reflect Lehigh Valley Health Network's regional expansion across eastern Pennsylvania.
Are there remote physician assistant jobs in Pennsylvania?
Yes, but they're rare. About 50% of physician assistant openings tied to Pennsylvania are remote or hybrid as of October 2026, which reflects how hands-on clinical care defines most PA roles. The exceptions tend to be utilization review, telehealth triage, and certain care management positions that do not require in-person patient contact.
How can I get hired as a physician assistant in Pennsylvania with little or no experience?
The most realistic entry path is a postgraduate PA residency or fellowship, and Pennsylvania has strong options through UPMC and Penn Medicine, both of which run structured new-graduate programs in specialties like emergency medicine, surgery, and primary care. New graduates who cannot secure a residency often start in hospitalist or urgent care roles, where supervision structures are built for less experienced PAs. Completing your Pennsylvania State Board of Medicine license quickly and holding ACLS certification gives your application a concrete edge over candidates who are still in process.
Where can I find and apply to physician assistant jobs in Pennsylvania?
You can find and apply to physician assistant jobs in Pennsylvania on Migrate Mate, which lists current openings tied to Pennsylvania employers. Find roles that fit your specialty, experience level, and location preference and apply directly to the ones that match.
