What this pays, and what it is worth
- Middling, nationally. Nevada pays this job around $63,610 at the midpoint, 29 of 50 states. The interesting numbers on this page are the two below it.
- Against other work in Nevada, this sits in the middle: 207 of 485 occupations with published pay. Solidly ordinary for the state, which is not the same as ordinary nationally.
- Here is where Nevada does better than its wage suggests. From a median of $63,610 you keep $53,291, and because things cost less here than the national average, that behaves like $54,950 would elsewhere. The average is higher, $66,600, because the best-paid pull it up.
- For health information technologists and medical registrars the Nevada median is $63,610, ranking 29 of 50 states reporting. Mid-band nominal positions are the ones most frequently reordered by the adjustments, because no large wage premium exists to absorb a state's tax or price level.
- Health information technologists and medical registrars ranks 207 of 485 occupations in Nevada by median pay, in the middle bands. Within-state and national positions are separate measurements and a job commonly sits in different quartiles on each.
- After federal, FICA and Nevada income tax, retained pay for health information technologists and medical registrars on $63,610 is $53,291. Deflating by the state's price level — below the national average — gives $54,950 in national-average terms. ⚠️ That figure is purchasing power, not a wage, and nobody is paid it; it is what the take-home buys. The mean of $66,600 sits above the median, the right skew typical of wage data.

Sources and assumptions
- Half the people doing this work in Nevada earn less than $63,610. The published range is $45,400 up to $80,860, so an individual figure can sit a long way from the middle in either direction.
- One filer, no dependants, no pension contributions — that is the household behind Nevada's $53,291, worked from $63,610. That is on purpose. It lets states be compared with each other, not with each other's family circumstances. Local city taxes are left out. Locally this work ranks 207 of 485.
- One number stands for prices across all of Nevada, which is a simplification — big cities cost far more than small towns. Read $54,950, the adjusted value of that $63,610 median, as a way to compare states fairly, not as a quote for any particular place. The two datasets are also from different years. This job sits at 207 of 485 in the state.
- Reported values are medians; for health information technologists and medical registrars in Nevada the tenth-to-ninetieth percentile band is $45,400 to $80,860. Neither the median nor the band is an offer rate, and neither accounts for hours, shift differentials or overtime.
- The Nevada take-home of $53,291, on $63,610 for work ranking 207 of 485 locally, models the simplest household deliberately: holding it constant is what makes the interstate comparison meaningful. It also means the absolute figure overstates liability for most real filers, and municipal income taxes are outside the model entirely. The occupation ranks 207 of 485 in the state.
- Price deflation uses one statewide parity for Nevada, so $54,950 — the adjusted value of that $63,610 median — establishes comparability between states rather than accuracy within one. The wage and parity series are dated independently, each following its own publication cycle, and neither is projected forward. This occupation sits at 207 of 485 locally.
Questions people ask
Is this the average pay for the job?
Half earn more than this and half earn less. The average sits at $66,600 because a long tail of high pay lifts it, so the two answer different questions.
How much does pay for this job actually vary?
Less than you might expect. The bottom tenth earn $45,400 and the top tenth $80,860, so most people doing this work in Nevada sit within a fairly tight band.
What does this pay actually buy where I live?
A smaller wage in a cheaper place is not automatically less. Adjusted for local prices, this is worth $54,950.
Is most of this wage taxed away?
No. $53,291 survives, because Nevada levies no wage income tax. The federal share does not change with the state you work in.
Why is this job missing from some states?
The survey withholds small samples rather than publish an unreliable number. Pay appears for 50 states here, and a missing state means too few reports, not no jobs.
How does the published median differ from the mean for this occupation?
The median is the midpoint of the distribution; the mean for this occupation in Nevada is $66,600. Wage distributions are right-skewed, so the mean exceeds the median wherever a minority earn substantially more. BLS publishes both because substituting one for the other misstates a typical worker's pay.
What is the dispersion of this occupation's wage distribution?
The tenth-to-ninetieth percentile span ($45,400 to $80,860) sits at or below the family's median dispersion, indicating relatively standardized compensation. Percentiles are published per state, so this dispersion is specific to Nevada rather than a national figure.
What is this occupation's price-adjusted compensation in this state?
Nevada's regional price parity is at or below the national average, so nominal wages understate purchasing power. Take-home deflated by the state price level is $54,950 in national-average terms. The adjustment uses an all-items index and does not isolate housing.
Why is the take-home ratio comparatively high in this state?
Nevada levies no personal income tax on wages, so take-home of $53,291 reflects the federal layer and FICA alone. Federal income tax and FICA are unchanged; states without a wage income tax generally recover revenue through consumption and property bases instead.
Why does this occupation lack published estimates in every state?
BLS suppresses estimates failing disclosure or reliability criteria. This occupation has published state-level estimates in 50 of the fifty-one jurisdictions. Suppression reflects sample size and confidentiality rules, and cannot be read as an absence of employment.
