Which healthcare occupations are published for Grand Island, NE?

Medical and Diagnostic Laboratories (NAICS 621500) has a national annual median of $131,970 for General and Operations Managers. National industry comparisons are not local title estimates.

What changed between the two releases?

Is this base salary or total compensation?

Neither. OEWS includes commissions and production bonuses as well as base rates. It excludes overtime, shift differentials, on-call pay, nonproduction bonuses and employer benefits. Keep sign-on and retention payments separate when they are nonproduction bonuses. Travel per-diem reimbursements and contractor receipts are not a published employee salary. Do not add production pay twice.

What else should you ask about this pay table?

Several healthcare titles map to one published SOC. This area has 37 distinct mapped occupations with medians, not a separate wage survey for every title. Read the mapping badge and occupation name before comparing the rows.

Why do titles in Grand Island, NE share wages?

Several healthcare titles map to one published SOC. This area has 37 distinct mapped occupations with medians, not a separate wage survey for every title. Read the mapping badge and occupation name before comparing the rows.

Can you turn the percentile band into junior and senior pay?

The published annual P25 to P75 band is $58,500 to $110,500. Its width is $52,000, calculated from those two observations. BLS percentiles describe the wage distribution, not years of experience. We do not assign an interpolated percentile, seniority premium or pay forecast.

What should you put in the hiring brief?

Define the leadership span before setting an offer: units covered, reporting lines, budget responsibility and call. A department director and a system leader may share a published occupation without doing the same job. Discuss any nonproduction bonus separately; BLS does not price this management scope. Tell us which tasks and scheduling terms you can change before using this wage comparison in a search.

What if a wage is missing or marked “or more”?

A missing cell stays unavailable. “Or more” appears only when the actual source marks that cell as top-coded; it is a lower bound, not an exact wage. Exact published numbers remain exact even when above a historical top-code amount. Tools label any fallback to a state or national row.

The COO comparison for Grand Island, NE uses 2024 Census reference points. Rural comparisons use unweighted county centers from fetched 2024 BLS definitions, or a disclosed state reference point if the group cannot be matched. These are not nearest-to-your-facility claims. Read the geography and wage definitions.
