Grizgein Posted October 7, 2020 Share Posted October 7, 2020 Hello! I'm 45 and turning down the PA track. The age is important as far as limited life left to get this degree working for me. Trying to find appropriate data sources and getting information with a lot of variance. Where do you go to find data on pay? I tried BLS, however it varies wildly from what I hear from PAs. Any suggestions are welcome so I van get my numbers crunched. Thank you. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
akerria29 Posted October 7, 2020 Share Posted October 7, 2020 You could pay to become a member of AAPA as a pre-pa student, that's what I did. As a member you have access to the latest salary reports, which vary by state. From my understanding, PAs even use those reports to negotiate salary when starting a new job. I hope this helps! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ohiovolffemtp Posted October 8, 2020 Share Posted October 8, 2020 You really need compensation data that will break it down by location, specialty, and if possible by experience. AAPA and NCCPA probably are the best sources. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
