Additionally, several banks of questions are asked on a rotating basis every two years. All the salary data throughout the report refer to salaries for medical physicists who work in the U.S. The exceptions to this are the rows of data in the body of the report that are labeled Canada (e.g. pages 7 through 10) and all of page 20. HIGHLIGHTS Average salary for calendar year 2020 n The average primary salary for calendar year 2020 grew to $201,800 and the total income including consulting PM tio fees averaged $206,800. Each of these was higher than the previous year. Please note that these values do not include any income derived from benefits such as pension plans, bonuses or profit-sharing funds. A a A rm of fo ty In Physicists who did not change employers in 2020 er al The salary changes reported by individuals who did not change employers may be the most accurate measure op nti of actual salary change. Regardless of degree level and board certification, the groups in the table below reported salary increases between 3.1% and 8.1%. The overall increases were higher than the increases reported the previous year.

These members reported an increase in median salary of 8.4%. These data include residents graduating from residency programs and transitioning into staff positions.

Pr e fid on Of all employed medical physicists (N=2502) who responded to the survey and who resided in the U.S.: C • 1,632 reported that they graduated from a medical physics graduate program. Of those who did, 72% said that the program was CAMPEP approved. • 850 reported that they graduated from a medical physics residency program. Of those who did, 81% said that the program was CAMPEP approved. • 83 medical physicists reported that they took their first positions in 2020 and that these were postdocs, residencies, and other training positions. Of these, 36% reported that they used the AAPM Placement Service to find their positions. 2 Professional Survey Report for 2020 Distribution of Membership • A majority (76%) of medical physicists specify radiation oncology as their primary discipline. • Nearly all respondents are full-time employed (94%). • Only 2.6% of members who were full-time employed identified themselves as being primarily self- employed consultants. • Women comprise 26% of the respondents. HOW THE SURVEY WAS CONDUCTED The data collection and analysis was handled by the Statistical Research Center (SRC) of the American Institute of Physics (AIP). The questionnaire was distributed to all regular AAPM members who resided in the U.S. or Canada as of the end of 2020. It was not sent to student, retired, associate, or corporate n members. The survey was conducted entirely online, and, of the 5,390 members who were asked to PM tio participate, 2,868 (53%) responded to the questionnaire and another 75 emailed us reasons why they did not participate. No members or staff of the AAPM (including the survey subcommittee) see individual data. A a A rm The data for 2020 were collected over an extended period of time from April to June of 2021. The main driver for this extended collection period was the COVID19 pandemic and the extension of the tax due date in the US to May 15, 2021. In an effort to have as high response rate as every year before we of fo extended the data collection to match the tax due date. This is a date significant for the full time ty In consultant members of AAPM. We urge you to take all that in consideration when you review the salary data for 2020. er al op nti Data Validation Procedures Pr e fid The AIP Statistical Research Center uses a number of different procedures to examine internal consistency and reliability as well as to ensure that the respondents are practicing medical physicists. First, each on returned questionnaire was inspected to ensure that all relevant items had been answered. The data were then checked for any of the following unlikely employment characteristics: C • Total salary did not equal primary salary plus consulting salary; or • Primary salary increased or decreased by more than 10% without an employer change. Questionnaires were also scrutinized if the reported salaries were outside of the typical range for the individual’s employment category, or if the salary fell outside the typical range of medical physicists in general (below $50,000 or above $500,000). Salaries as low as $45,000 were included for postdocs and residents. Time spent in residency is considered work experience and should be reported as such. The salary distributions were then closely examined for unusual fluctuations within each employment category and for unusual variations from year to year. On the rare occasion that any of these discrepancies could not be resolved, the response was excluded from the analysis. 3 Professional Survey Report for 2020 Finally, full salary distributions were only reported for groups with at least 12 respondents. For groups of 5 to 11 respondents, only the average salaries have been reported. Data for groups of fewer than 5 members represent low reliability and were therefore omitted. ORGANIZATION OF THE REPORT • The salary data shown on the following pages include only those individuals who had an income over $50,000, indicated that they were full-time employed, and were not in a training program. Salaries for postdoctoral fellows, residents, and DMPs can be found in a separate table near the end of the report. • Because a majority of medical physicists are employed in radiation oncology, there are two pages of salary data that are specific to this sub-group. n PM tio • The overall salaries for male and female medical physicists appear near the top of each salary versus degree-board certification table. A a A rm • A breakdown of the salary ranges versus the number of employees supervised is also included in the report. of fo • Members were identified as being primarily a consultant if their consulting salary was their largest ty In source of income. Part-time employees who are primarily consultants are included in the consulting salary data. er al op nti • Salary data are provided for physicists working in Canada as a separate page. There is also a summary line of data about Canadians at the bottom of each degree level page. Canadian salaries are reported in Canadian dollars. Pr e fid on TO REQUEST ADDITIONAL INFORMATION C Additional data, such as salaries versus degree-certification combinations in selected states, are available upon request if the sample size is determined to be large enough to assure anonymity and reliability. Such queries should be directed to Julius Dollison of the Statistical Research Center of the American Institute of Physics at jdolliso@aip.org or (301) 209-3059.
