State Insights
Missouri at a Glance
Independent-contractor (1099) NP roles in Missouri pay $75–$150+ per hour without benefits or employer-paid malpractice. Clinicians self-fund quarterly estimated taxes, occurrence-based malpractice, and any LLC or PLLC structure — net take-home depends heavily on those offsets and MO self-employment tax exposure. Missouri grants restricted practice authority requiring physician supervision, and the state's cost of living near the national average (index 100) directly shapes NP compensation expectations. Top metros in Missouri are not currently federally designated health professional shortage areas, but regional demand for NPs and reimbursement structure shape compensation. The 3 active postings reflect a smaller pool of openings for NPs in the state.
Missouri requires PMHNPs to have a collaborative practice arrangement with physician supervision.
