CPC-A Salary

Not sure what region of the country you are in. Around here (in IL), our CPC-A's are starting out at about $10 an hour. Once the "A" is removed, it goes up to about $12-$14 an hour.

I think this can vary widely from regions around the country and type of practice/facility.

The original post was also from 2008. In 2023, in many states minimum wage is well above $10/hr.
And definitely agree with @amyjph about the difference based on location and type of employer.
