1 Medical assistants across the country enthusiastically participated in the 2014 Compensation and Benefits Survey, conducted by the American Association of Medical Assistants. More than 6,100 medical assistants completed the survey, an increase of 1,700 from last year. The AAMA ed an electronic questionnaire to a random sampling of more than 53,000 medical assistants and medical assisting educators. Most of the participants had earned the CMA (AAMA) credential (89 percent) and were members of the AAMA (94 percent). The large number of participants ensures that the results have a high degree of statistical significance. Statistical significance and terms used The overall margin of error for the 6,190 responses is ±1.3 percent at the 95 percent confidence level. Margin of error describes the statistical significance of the sample as an estimate of the population. The margin of error should be treated only as an approximation, since margin of error calculations are based on pure random selection, which is not achievable in traditional survey settings where response is voluntary. The ±1.3 percent margin of error applies to overall statistics based on the total respondents to the survey smaller breakout groups presented throughout the report have higher margins of error. Judgments based on statistics with very low sample sizes should be made with caution. Statistics are rounded to the nearest whole number Medical Assisting Compensation and Benefits Report Compensation Both hourly pay rates and annual gross salaries were collected on the survey. Approximately 97 percent of full-time medical assistants are paid hourly, while roughly 3 percent are paid by annual salary. By CMA (AAMA) certification Average hourly wages and salary vary according to years of experience for all medical assistants surveyed. Full-time medical assistants holding a current CMA (AAMA) certification earn an average of $15.49 per hour or an average annual salary of $29,600. These earnings are above the averages of $14.33 or $27,261 collected for full-time medical assistants who have never held CMA (AAMA) certification and may or may not hold another type of medical assisting certification. Comparisons for full-time CMAs (AAMA) and non-cmas (AAMA) are broken down by years of experience in Table 1. Employers are not only paying higher wages for the CMA (AAMA), they are also increasingly demanding that their medical assistants have a CMA (AAMA) credential. Every day the AAMA responds to more than 100 employer requests for CMA (AAMA) certification verification for both current and potential employees. Such demand is often due to the pressures of potential malpractice suits and the certification mandates placed on employers by managed care organizations. 1 Additionally, on August 23, 2012, the Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services (CMS) ruled that only credentialed medical assistants including CMAs (AAMA) as well as licensed health care professionals, would be allowed to enter medication, laboratory, and radiology orders into the computerized provider order entry system for meaningful use purposes for the Medicare and Medicaid Electronic Health Record Incentive Programs. 2 The CMA (AAMA) must have current status to use the credential, including for qualifying to enter orders for the Medicare and Medicaid EHR Incentive Programs. By geographic region The average annual earnings and hourly wages were computed for geographic regions of the United States (Figure 1). The Pacific region showed the highest earnings Table 1.

2 for full-time current CMAs (AAMA), with averages of $33,403 annually and $17.88 hourly. Across the country, New England turned in the second highest annual earnings ($30,691), and hourly wages ($16.17). The full comparison is shown in Table 2. By work setting The overwhelming majority of medical assistants surveyed work in physicians offices. Almost 94 percent of respondents are employed in that setting, with roughly 2 percent in ambulatory surgery and nearly 4 percent in other. The breakdown of wages and earnings by work setting is shown in Table 3. Figures for inpatient hospital care, nursing homes, and home and hospice care are not listed due to insufficient response numbers. Figure 1.

4 Employment benefits Roughly 94 percent of all full-time medical assistants receive some form of benefits package from their employer (Figure 2). Insurance Almost 74 percent of full-time medical assistants receive major medical coverage. Another 74 percent receive dental coverage, 63 percent receive vision coverage, 55 percent receive disability coverage, and almost 23 percent receive professional liability coverage. The full range of benefits for full-time medical assistants is shown in Figure 3. AAMA membership and conference When asked if employers offer to help pay for various AAMA expenses, almost 17 percent of full-time medical assistants who are AAMA members responded that their employers pay their membership dues in full (Figure 4). In addition, almost 9 percent have their annual conference registration fees paid for in full, and another 5 percent have travel and lodging paid by their employers. References 1. Balasa DA.
