Local market
CRNA jobs and hiring in Georgia
Georgia's statewide median sits below the national figure, but Atlanta pulls above it and South Georgia nonmetropolitan areas pull well below. Columbus and Macon land near the state midrange. Augusta publishes lower than Atlanta. If you are comparing an Atlanta system offer to a South Georgia community hospital offer, use the metro rows, not the state headline.
Georgia has not opted out of the federal Medicare CRNA supervision requirement. Postings still need a clear read on supervision or care-team structure, hospital privileges, and malpractice. Atlanta concentrates large hospital systems and surgery centers. Smaller markets often trade different call loads and package shapes for the same job title. Ask what is base vs call vs 1099 before you decide an offer is "low" or "high" against OEWS.
- Georgia's median is below national while Atlanta sits closer to the national midrange, so location inside the state is part of the negotiation.
- Confirm privileges, practice model, and malpractice terms with the employer. Those are offer-specific.

Common questions
Georgia CRNA salary FAQ
How much do CRNAs make in Georgia?

Is Atlanta CRNA pay higher than the Georgia statewide median?

How is my Georgia CRNA salary percentile estimated?
The calculator annualizes the base pay you enter, then interpolates between Georgia's BLS 10th, 25th, 50th, 75th, and 90th percentile thresholds for Nurse Anesthetists (SOC 29-1151). Values outside that published range are labeled only as below the 10th or above the 90th threshold.
Does this include call pay or 1099 packages?
No. Enter base pay only. Call pay, overtime, stipends, and 1099 package totals are excluded. Advertised totals are not the same as OEWS base wages.
What should I check when applying for a Georgia CRNA job?
Match the metro or nonmetro area against the wage table, ask whether pay is W-2 or 1099, clarify call and practice model, and verify privileges and malpractice terms in writing. Georgia has not opted out of the federal Medicare CRNA supervision requirement, so supervision or care-team language on the posting still matters. For how to decode listing labels, see the nurse anesthetist jobs guide.
