Participate in our annual survey, now open through Dec 23.

Each year, 24×7 publishes its much-anticipated compensation and job-satisfaction survey results to help shed light on salary trends, workload realities, and workforce sentiment in healthcare technology management (HTM). The 2025 survey is now live, and we are asking HTM professionals at every level to participate so the findings continue to reflect the field accurately and comprehensively.
While general healthcare and IT salary reports exist, they often overlook HTM’s specialized technical roles. For many organizations, the 24×7 survey has become a go-to reference when budgeting, benchmarking compensation, and supporting retention strategies.
AAMI vice president of HTM Danielle McGeary says that AAMI encourages leaders to use the survey’s data to benchmark pay and strengthen retention efforts. Many HTM professionals tell me the results help guide those conversations in their organizations.
At UVA Health Dialysis, Carlton Anderson, CBNT, CDWS, supervisor of clinical engineering, says the survey has led to compensation changes in his department for most positions. Associate engineer Jimmy Young, also at UVA Health, says it played a key role in correcting a pay gap for his team. “I found my team—or at least I—was being compensated at a rate below what the average for our area and title should be,” Young says. “This information played a key role in an ongoing market adjustment that eventually led to my team being paid more in line with the numbers reported by your survey.”
At SUNY Upstate Medical University, Allison White, executive director of clinical equipment lifecycle management, says she regularly shares the findings with HR as part of compensation planning. “They compare it with other industry surveys. The 24×7 salary survey is specific to HTM, so I cite it often when determining fair compensation for employees,” she says.
Similarly, David Small, BSEE, BMET, of US RenalCare Technical Services, says compensation analysts have made adjustments based on the survey in past years, calling it “instrumental” in providing a snapshot of the HTM compensation landscape.
As HTM leaders continue to cite workload pressures, recruitment challenges, expanded cybersecurity responsibilities, and increasing technical complexity, access to accurate workforce and compensation benchmarks remains essential.
Please take a few minutes to complete this year’s survey and share it with colleagues. Higher response numbers make the findings stronger for everyone.
