WageWatch Launches Washington Health Care Survey

Scottsdale, AZ (PRWEB) June 5, 2006

WageWatch, Inc.,(www. WageWatch. com ) the leading online compensation and benefits survey company, announced today that it is expanding its presence in the hospital and healthcare market with the launch of a new Hospital and Healthcare Compensation and Benefits Survey in the State of Washington.

The company already publishes two highly successful wage, salary, and benefits surveys in Oregon and Arizona, in which more than 90% of the state hospitals and many other non-hospital healthcare providers participate. The demands for staff and the subsequent need for up-to-date, reliable compensation data are strong in healthcare, where competition for staff often crosses state lines.

According to Jo Bell, Director Legislative Support Services for the Oregon Association of Hospitals and Health Systems, “The benefits of the WageWatch survey for our members are the accessibility and flexibility. Its Web-based format is easy to access, and the ability to run custom reports makes it very adaptable to the needs of the individual hospitals.”

WageWatch's on-line technology enables survey subscribers to update their pay data as it changes and obtain the most current results for the competitors they choose to compare against. Because the survey reports aggregated data from subscribers’ customized set of competitors, it eliminates any concerns about data exchange that could conflict with Department of Justice guidelines.

Washington participants will be able to generate on-line customized reports based on a variety of data elements including zip code, number of beds, operating revenue and type of facility. The survey covers over 200 job titles unique to the hospital and healthcare industry.

The first ten participants in the Washington survey will receive a complementary subscription to the 2006 survey.

Participants will also be submitting data on a comprehensive benefits survey that covers medical and dental plans and the employee share of premium costs, paid time off, and retirement plans.
