Hey! I am a Certified Medical Assistant (CMA) working at a private very busy internal medicine practice. I have a Bachelor of Science degree in Interdisciplinary Medical Sciences and am working here during my two gap years before medical school. I feel as though I am being severely underpaid at $18 / hour despite having a bachelor degree in the relevant field and almost 2 years of experience as an MA. Anyone with a B.S. and an MA mind sharing what they are making or anyone have any tips? In FL.

I have managed multiple pactices and wages can vary quite a bit between where you live and if you are certified or not. For a position like a CMA your B.S. is not really going to be valued unless you are looking to move into leadership and sometimes a company may not give you as much pay if they know you are going to be a short term asset (only going to be there two years). To answer your question $18 might be inline for a private practice in FL. With 2 years and Cerfication I would look at $20-22, in Washington but I am not sure how FL compares to WA wage wise. Just my two cents.

Education doesn't always equate to higher pay, does your position require a Bachelors Degree? If it does, then yes you probably are being underpaid. If it only requires a certificate, then that sounds appropriate to me.
