Although healthcare jobs held five of the top 10 spots for Glassdoor's 25 Highest Paying Jobs in America in 2017, only four healthcare-specific professions were ranked among Glassdoor's 50 Best Jobs for 2018.
Glassdoor weighed each job's median annual base salary, overall job satisfaction rating and number of job openings equally to determine the job's overall score. The results represented job titles that rated highly among all three categories.
To be considered for the list, the job must have at least 100 salary reports and at least 100 job satisfaction ratings on Glassdoor shared by U.S.-based employees over the past year.
Here are the four healthcare jobs that made the list.
No. 4 — Occupational therapist
No. 25 — Physician assistant
No. 28 — Nursing manager
No. 49 — Nurse practitioner
