Objective:To measure the salary satisfaction level of medical staff in county-level public hospitals and provide reference for the design of policy reforms. Method:Eight county-level public hospitals were investigated. All analyses were performed using SPSS 19. 0 via statistical description and binary logistic regression. Results: The total salary satisfaction of the medical staff was 48 . 8%, and the average score was 54 . 05 ± 18 . 04 . The welfare satis-faction is the lowest (38. 8%), and the average score is 7. 98 ± 3. 51. Logistic regression analysis shows that the ac-ademic degree, department category, working hours per week, acceptance of bribes, and officially budgeted posts are the main factors affecting overall compensation satisfaction. Conclusion:The overall salary satisfaction level of medi-cal staff in county-level public hospitals is very low, and the welfare satisfaction is the lowest. Establishing the rea-sonable level of compensation, the rise of compensation, and the welfare mechanism are feasible choices to improve salary satisfaction.
