The compensation results included only full-time, permanent employees and took into account annual salary and bonuses.

How does this year's salary for Physician Assistant compare to other years?
In 2022, the average physician assistant’s salary returned to its steady increase after drifting downward during the pandemic, beating its previous peak in 2018. During the pandemic, some PAs experienced layoffs and furloughs, and others reported burnout (43% in 2020) and plans for a job change (44% in 2020). As a critical part of the patient experience, the urgent need to create a good work environment and cultivate job satisfaction for PAs cannot be overstated.
