Content Blueprint for the Physician Assistant National Recertifying Examination (PANRE) and the Pilot Alternative to PANRE (effective January 2019) Information on how the blueprint was developed may be accessed using the following link: PANRE and Pilot Alternative to PANRE Content Blueprint (effective January 2019) - Introduction Organized by Level of Assessment The diseases and disorders that may be covered on PANRE and the Pilot Alternative to PANRE are provided below and are sorted based on the level of assessment. In addition to covering the topics listed below, up to 2% of the questions on PANRE and the Pilot Alternative to PANRE may cover professional practice (legal and ethical) issues. Due to the limited number of questions on PANRE and the Pilot Alternative to PANRE, it is not possible to include all topics on a single exam. The percentage allocations are approximate and may vary slightly with each exam. Content Area Percent Allocation* Cardiovascular System 13% Dermatologic System 6% Endocrine System 6% Eyes, Ears, Nose, and Throat 8% Gastrointestinal System/Nutrition 11% Genitourinary System 5% Hematologic System 4% Infectious Diseases 6% Musculoskeletal System 9% Neurologic System 7% Psychiatry/Behavioral Science 5% Pulmonary System 10% Renal System 3% Reproductive System 7% * Percentages may vary slightly with each exam.
