But I  don't *believe* that any state allows PAs to hang out their shingles 
in an  independent practice the way NPs can in several  states.

Illinois, to my surprised knowledge, apparently does allow PAs to practice  
without the supervising physician present 'on the grounds.'

There are several urgent care type clinics that I visited out of curiosity  
(mostly in major department/mega stores) where they only had phone  consults.

Louisiana and Missouri both require a supervising physician to be 'in  house' 
for the PA to act.
