Alaska Leads Reported State Averages</h3> 10<p><strong>Alaska</strong> has the highest advertised average at <strong>$400,000</strong>. <strong>California</strong> follows at <strong>$353,125</strong>, with <strong>New Mexico</strong> close behind at <strong>$352,000</strong>. <strong>Oregon</strong> ranks next at <strong>$327,105</strong>, followed by <strong>New Hampshire</strong> at <strong>$321,667</strong>.</p> 11<p>These figures reflect the positions advertised during the reporting period, not guaranteed statewide pay levels. The source publication does not provide posting counts by state, so differences in sample size should be considered when comparing averages.</p> 12<h3>
122. Pennsylvania Shows the Highest Advertised Maximum</h3> 13<p><strong>Pennsylvania</strong> has the highest advertised maximum at <strong>$475,000</strong>. <strong>Alaska</strong>, <strong>Arizona</strong>, <strong>California</strong>, and <strong>Missouri</strong> each reach <strong>$450,000</strong>. Several other states\u2014including Colorado, New York, North Carolina, Oregon, and Texas\u2014show advertised maximums of <strong>$425,000</strong>.</p> 14<p>These top-end figures may be associated with specialized practice, heavy call obligations, additional shifts, or incentive-based compensation. Candidates should ask employers to separate guaranteed base salary from call pay, overtime, bonuses, and other variable compensation.</p> 15<h3>3. Strong Salary Floors Appear in Several Markets</h3> 16<p><strong>Alaska</strong> has the highest reported salary floor at <strong>$350,000</strong>, followed by <strong>New Hampshire</strong> at <strong>$280,000</strong> and <strong>Rhode Island</strong> at <strong>$270,000</strong>. <strong>Delaware</strong> follows at <strong>$260,000</strong>, while Idaho, Montana, North Dakota, and Oklahoma each show lowest advertised minimums of <strong>$250,000</strong>.</p> 17<p>A high advertised minimum can be a useful negotiating benchmark, but it may also reflect call intensity, a difficult recruiting environment, specialized clinical needs, or other job requirements.</p> 18<h3>4. Salary Ranges Vary Widely Within Some States</h3> 19<p>The widest reported range appears in <strong>Pennsylvania</strong>, from <strong>$200,000 to $475,000</strong>. <strong>Texas</strong> ranges from <strong>$170,000 to $425,000</strong>, while <strong>Arizona</strong> ranges from <strong>$200,000 to $450,000</strong>. <strong>Connecticut</strong> and <strong>Missouri</strong> each span <strong>$230,000</strong> between their lowest minimum and highest maximum.</p> 20<p>Wide ranges may reflect very different schedules, practice settings, case mixes, call burdens, or compensation structures within the same state. A statewide average should be treated as a starting point for deeper job-by-job comparison.</p> 21<h2>What CRNAs Should Compare Beyond Salary</h2> 22<p>Advertised base salary is only one part of a CRNA job offer. Candidates should also compare:</p> 23<ul><li>Call requirements and callback compensation</li><li>Case mix, acuity, and specialized team responsibilities</li><li>Clinical hours, overtime terms, and additional shift rates</li><li>Practice model, staffing structure, and supervision requirements</li><li>Paid time off, health benefits, and retirement contributions</li><li>Sign-on bonuses, retention incentives, and relocation assistance</li><li>Continuing medical education allowances</li><li>Malpractice coverage, including whether tail coverage is provided</li><li>Cost of living and state tax differences</li></ul> 24<p>A higher salary may reflect a more demanding schedule or a difficult recruiting environment.
