Cath Lab, IR & EP Wage Trends and Analysis

Welcome to the Phoenix Monthly Market Analysis for all travel jobs in Cardiac Cath Lab, Interventional Radiology and Electrophysiology! We’ll break down last month’s newest high-paying jobs with state-by-state analysis and nursing vs tech breakdowns.

Breaking the ice…
July weather must have thawed the market, because July started to get back to normal.  On the most positive side, we’re seeing good Nursing orders consistently all over the country.  Some MSPs are trying to drive rates down, but others are posting some nice orders.  Technologists continue to see steady flow and slightly increasing rates.  At the end of July, a handful of orders came across that portend well for the future – bill rates starting to hit $130.  The map below shows a little about the different directions of the MSPs – looking at how different dots overlap – a green right next to a red indicates that two local health systems are posting orders – one higher rates, one lowering rates.
