AcademyHealth conducted the 2023 Compensation Survey, which yielded powerful data to help health services and health policy researchers as they explore career options and advocate for better compensation packages. Findings from the survey informed the development of the Salary and Compensation Report - a detailed analysis created in collaboration with the Department of Health Services Policy and Management at the University of South Carolina's Arnold School of Public Health.
Available to members-only, the AcademyHealth Salary and Compensation Report presents data on how salaries vary across the field based on several factors, including:
- Workplace Setting
- Career Level
- Gender Identity
- Racial Identity
- Ethnic Identity
- Geographic Location
- and more
Recognizing that negotiating a higher salary is critical for career advancement, AcademyHealth offers this report as a benefit for its membership community. The data is based on responses to the 2023 AcademyHealth Salary and Compensation Survey, which surveyed 7,115 researchers and received 564 responses, yielding a response rate of 7.9 percent.
