More Responsibility for Physician Assistants? An Evening on the Medicine of Tomorrow
How far does the role of Physician Assistants in healthcare reach? The 5th HSD Talk Physician Assistants on November 12, 2026, focuses on the opportunities, limits, and future perspectives of delegation and substitution in an international comparison. The free online event is aimed at doctors, Physician Assistants, students, alumni, healthcare personnel, and all interested parties.
International Models and Their Significance for Germany
The focus is on a current health policy and professional discussion: While countries like the UK, the USA, Canada, or the Netherlands have established different models of delegation and substitution, the profession of Physician Assistant is still developing dynamically in Germany. The HSD Talk opens perspectives on international experiences and asks which approaches seem transferable to the German healthcare system.
Expert Knowledge from Science and Practice
Prof. Dr. Tanja Beament from Aalen University will provide an international comparison and share her many years of experience in medicine, teaching, and clinical practice. Dr. med. Ingo Musche-Ambrosius, board member of the State Medical Association of Brandenburg, will provide a health policy perspective on the topic. Further contributions from Physician Assistants with international experience and the International Office of HSD will complement the professional perspective.
Program with Impulses and Discussion
The evening will be hosted by Prof. Dr. Fabian Ludwig, Professor of Internal Medicine and General Medicine in the Physician Assistance program at HSD Hochschule Döpfer. After the welcome, there will be impulses on delegation and substitution in international comparison, reports from Physician Assistants, and insights into international pathways and possibilities. A moderated discussion will bring together different viewpoints and create space for questions from the audience.
The event will begin at 18:00 with the welcome. Around 18:10, the international comparison will be the focus, followed by practical reports at 18:30. At 18:45, international PA models as possible impulses for Germany will be discussed. The discussion will start at 19:00, and the farewell is scheduled for 19:30.

The atmosphere of the HSD Talk is created not by a traditional event space, but by focused impulses, current professional debates, and direct exchange between medicine, science, education, and healthcare management. For participants from Regensburg and beyond, there is no travel needed.
