How You Can Participate in a U.S. Healthcare West Survey

  • Regional pay practice & benefits

  • Special member pricing

Participants receive a significant discount on results pricing through your state association. Additional discounts are available for multiple products and you can also receive a discount if you agree to participate for multiple years. Other offers are available, as well as system-level pricing.

  • Most current information available

Once data has passed the 90-day threshold for Department of Justice compliance, it will be published with an effective date. New participants to the survey are added to the results, and they will be published on a quarterly basis.

  • Usability and flexibility

The healthcare compensation survey is open all year to make updates as needed. This allows for the most up-to-date market comparisons. Zach Day, Director of Survey Management at Salary.com, notes:

“If right now is not a good time for you to participate in this study, you can sign up to participate in the study at any point in the year and still receive the same great benefits.”

The Sections for Participation

The healthcare compensation survey has several sections for participation. Each section will require you to fill out information about your organization and its compensation plan. From this, data can be generated and compared with hundreds of other responses in the database.

Here are the sections that you need to complete:

  • Contact Information

In this section, you will provide the contact information of the person filling out the survey. This section will also require you to answer any questions about the submission process.

  • Pay Practices

Pay practices include topics such as pay programs, recruitment turnover, and reward systems. Input your information in relation to these topics for every pay strategy in your organization.

  • Benefits Plans

This section will require you to enter each benefit plan offered to your employee groups. If you only have one benefit plan, then roll all employees under that plan.

  • Medical Plans

You will need to enter each medical plan that is offered to your employee groups here. If you only offer one medical plan type, then roll all employees under that plan.

  • Company Profile and Job Data

Download and save our spreadsheet template to complete this portion of the survey. If you haven’t participated in the past, your last survey submission job matches will be available in the pre-populated spreadsheet version.

How Can the Healthcare Compensation Survey Results Be Viewed?

Once you complete the healthcare compensation survey, you can begin to analyze the results. Two of the main ways you can view results are as standard job reports or as custom job reports. Here is the difference between the two:

  1. Standard Job Reports

Standard job reports include every piece of data collected in the study. This means that all the information is able to be viewed, which can give you an overall picture of each component and its results. The standard job reports are available to be downloaded in CVS or PDF format.

  1. Custom Job Reports

Custom job reports allow you to specifically search for components. This means that you can really dive into the specific information that you wish to analyze. Whether you wish to look at job families, locations, specific jobs, or more, this section may be beneficial to you as you can hyperfocus your research into a specific area.
