What Are the Biggest Employers and Wages for Physician Assistant Jobs?

By : Wanda Edwards

Not all physician assistant jobs are well paid and not every employer is a major institution. That is the sad reality as with many healthcare type jobs. However, there are a number of institutions and other top paying employers that you should consider when trying to secure one of these lucrative positions, places where you find even more chances to advance your career.

According to recent employment figures and salary studies, some of the best PA jobs can also be found at some of the more established employers. However, the salaries are based on the average median earnings, including such employers and salaries as:

* colleges - $82,450
* employment agencies - $104,780
* Federal Executive Branch (OES) - $81,180
* general medical hospitals - $86,850
* general surgical type hospitals - $86,850
* offices of physicians - $84,720
* outpatient care type centers - $87,060
* professional type schools - $82,450
* residential facilities (mental health) - $103,520
* residential facilities (mental retardation) - $103,520
* specialty type hospitals - $90,940
* substance abuse type facilities - $103,520
* universities - $82,450

As you can clearly see, some of the top employers and salaries given for PA are not necessarily found in regular doctor's offices. The reality is that the better paying physician assistant jobs in this field are still found through universities, colleges and major medical centres. However, for the best salaries, many physician assistants are focussing their job searches on residential care type facilities or centers where substance abuse, mental disabilities and mental health are treated. If you have the training in these areas, the possibilities for long-term employment, advancements and further education are extremely good. Most importantly, you are guaranteed outstanding earnings in secure and enriching environments with some of the best employers in the health and medical industries.
