Practicing as an NP in Texas
AANP classifies Texas as a restricted practice state. Texas requires NPs to have a prescriptive authority agreement with a supervising physician. Texas is a Nurse Licensure Compact member. The compact covers the RN license beneath your APRN credential. The APRN license itself is still issued by Texas. APRN licensure is issued by the Texas Board of Nursing. Check the board's current checklist before accepting a role, because requirements and fees change. Certification for this role: national board certification through AANPCB or ANCC on the population track that matches the role.
Rate-Based Pay
Contract rates are quoted per hour or per shift without the benefits of a permanent role, so compare the whole package.

1099 contractors can deduct travel, housing, CME, malpractice insurance, and home office expenses where the rules allow.
Geographic Freedom
