Soon, the health technology community will have fresh insights and previously unknown data about some of its most essential workers. That’s because AAMI and TechNation have joined forces to thoroughly survey the professionals who make up the healthcare technology management (HTM) field.
In the first-ever edition of the State of HTM Survey, the Association for the Advancement of Medical Instrumentation (AAMI) and TechNation parent company MD Publishing are collaborating to collect the most accurate data possible about the profession.
This survey builds upon insights from AAMI’s 2021 HTM Demographic Survey, and will investigate HTM profession salary and compensation, work conditions, demographics and certification.
If you identify as a biomedical equipment technician, clinical engineer, third-party service provider, or any other level of HTM professional, you can serve your industry by filling out the survey. Once completed, AAMI and TechNation will share their findings with the field. The survey is expected to yield the most up-to-date information on the many facets of HTM. This data will help you make important decisions about your career and establish clear baselines for improving the field.
AAMI Vice President of HTM Danielle McGeary said, “AAMI is truly gratified to have the chance to serve the HTM community by conducting this survey. We eagerly anticipate distributing our findings to the entire HTM field so that they can learn more about their chosen profession. Our sincere thanks to our friends at TechNation, and to all the HTM professionals who fill out this survey.”
“This survey is crucial as we partner with AAMI to enhance the HTM industry, a sector vital to us all,” added MD Publishing President John Krieg. “The survey will gather direct, primary data from a large sample size, covering key behaviors and data points. This invaluable information will empower decision-makers to implement necessary changes within individuals and departments, fostering greater efficiency, refining policies, and elevating standards. Ultimately, these improvements are critical for providing superior patient care. We are thankful for the opportunity with AAMI and excited to see the final results.”
All HTM professionals are encouraged to participate in the 2025 State of HTM Survey! The survey will remain open until October 17.
