GI Tech/associates pay scales

Yes, thanks this does help. I know my boss will ask this......is this pay for RN, LPN or unlicensed personel? I am a CNA but the other two are not yet certified, but will certify in endoscopy as soon as SGNA has the program up and running for associates. We all function in the same capacity though.

Hello all,

I am curreently working in a VHA hospital in the endoscopy area as a tech/associate actually assisting the Doc with all aspects of procedures...ie colonoscopy, EGD, ERCP, bronchs, pegs in addition to all cleaning and sterilization of all scopes. My hospital is trying to figure out how much to pay us....there are three techs able to assist. I am a CNA with 6 years of endo experience and would appreciate any ideas as to how other facilities catagorize staff like me as far as pay scales. I'm hard pressed to find much online regarding GI associates and wages.

Thanks much, Tia
