  • Eligibility: Published once on the OMESA hub and shared by all four Centra PA fellowships, verbatim: "Completion of an accredited PA master's program" / "National board certification as a PA" / "Virginia licensure as a PA" / "DEA licensure" / "BLS (and ACLS or PALS for acute care tracks)" / "Meet all criteria for privileging as set forth by Centra Medical Group, Lynchburg General Hospital and all payors at the time of program start" -- preceded by "These items must be completed no later than six weeks prior to start date of fellowship." PA-ONLY: there is no NP eligibility pathway on any Centra PA fellowship page.
  • Application deadline: "Positions are open until filled." (the hub sentence; it governs the three non-cardiology tracks only)
  • How to apply: Shared application form at https://www.centrahealth.com/form/pa-fellowship-application; documents to Morgan McDowell DNP AGPCNP-BC WHNP-BC, Director of APP Education ([email protected]). APP Recruiter: Sarah Overstreet.
  • Start date: "Next position available Fall 2025 and Spring 2026" -- BOTH WINDOWS ARE PAST as of 2026-08-30; quoted as published and deliberately NOT rolled forward.
  • Setting & rotations: "The primary care fellows will have the opportunity to work in multiple primary care and specialty practices across Centra Health to better be able to care for complex patients in a primary care setting. Working with physicians, NPs, PAs, and residents, the primary care fellow will develop their procedural skills, diagnostic and assessment skills, to become a competent provider in primary care."

Not ARC-PA accredited — which is normal for PA postgraduate programs and is not a mark against this one. This specific program is not separately listed in APPAP’s member directory; verify current status with the program.
