Medscape's 2024 Compensation Report shows an average jump of 6%.

. The average PA earned around $142,000, up about $8000 from the previous year. The average 6% jump followed a 4% increase a year earlier.

"PAs realigned their careers to gravitate to the medical specialties with patients they enjoyed working with and decided they weren't going to change jobs unless the pay was significantly better," Moser told"New graduates are turning down jobs on the lower end of the pay scale, knowing there is another job just around the corner," said Stephanie Doty, national director of Healthcare Recruiters International in Los Angeles.

"Let's say you're in Chicago. Employers there can get away with a little less because they have so many candidates," she said. "I generally tell PAs they'll make more money the higher the stress level," Moser said. However, he listed high-revenue settings such as dermatology offices, and functional medicine, and cash-pay practices, as exceptions.

A gender pay gap persists within the field. Salaried male PAs earned on average about 10% more than than their female counterparts; for those paid hourly, the gap was around 14%.
