ANNUAL HOURS INCENTIVE
Full-time CRNAs can increase their hourly rate based on the number of qualifying hours worked during their 12-month service year:
1,890+ hours/year: +$15/hour — $215/hour total
1,665–1,889 hours/year: +$10/hour — $210/hour total
1,170–1,664 hours/year: +$5/hour — $205/hour total
Qualifying hours include OR hours, overtime, callback hours, OB/Flex hours, 24-hour OB shifts, and qualifying surgery center hours.
The program is based on total qualifying hours worked during the year rather than requiring a specific number of Full Weeks.
Hourly incentives are paid monthly. Final incentive eligibility is based on total qualifying hours completed during the 12-month service year.
CRNAs participating in the annual-hours incentive program also provide mutually agreed-upon call coverage and assist with coverage during either Thanksgiving or Christmas week.
CRNAs must be clinically able to provide call independently before the hourly incentive becomes applicable.
ESTIMATED EARNING POTENTIAL
Based on an average of approximately 45 scheduled hours per working week and participation in the average call rotation, estimated gross annual compensation ranges from approximately $273,000 to $461,000.
The estimate assumes approximately one weekday call shift per active week, one full weekend of call per active month, and at least one callback hour per call shift.
Actual earnings will vary based on total hours worked, incentive level achieved, call participation, callback hours, and scheduling needs.
Additional earning potential is available for clinicians who work additional qualifying hours or accept additional call coverage.
