The biennial HIMSS Compensation Survey is the definitive resource for healthcare information technology (HIT) professionals to compare compensation packages. The survey, conducted by HIMSS (Healthcare Information and Management Systems Society), provides overall statistics for trends in the industry, while offering demographic information by facility budget, facility type, geographic region, gender, length of service and professional level.
Every two years, HIMSS conducts the HIMSS Compensation Survey. This resource allows healthcare information technology (IT) professionals to compare salaries and compensation packages. This overview provides information on the overall market. It also provides average salary increase and salary information by key demographic variables, including organizational annual net revenue, facility type, geographic region, gender, professional level and length of service. HIMSS members also have access to an exclusive on-line salary calculator, job descriptions and benefits information.
Data for this survey was collected in August and September of 2010. Invitations were sent to the entire HIMSS membership, as well as other HIT professionals for whom HIMSS had an e-mail address. Announcements about this survey were also included on the HIMSS website and in HIMSS' electronic newsletters. Individuals who received the invitation were encouraged to share it with their colleagues. A total of 2,580 responses were received.
