Quality Control/Assurance salary data from the National Compensation Survey is provided as a service to non-WageAccess® salary survey participants. National Compensation Survey data is not incorporated into the WageAccess® salary survey results.

2The projected quality control/assurance salaries have been derived through the application of a proprietary aging formula. This formula uses a combination of statistical metrics, including the Consumer Price Index (CPI) as reported by the Bureau of Labor Statistics (BLS), BLS-reported annual changes in national salary data, actual reported WageAccess® salary data trends and other economic parameters.

The aging process is designed to provide a more accurate representation of current quality control/assurance salary levels based on historical salary data. However, the assumptions made and the calculations applied to the quality control/assurance salaries during the aging process may be flawed and the resulting projected quality control/assurance salaries, as presented on this page, may not actually represent current or valid pay levels for any particular position or any particular market.
