State Insights
Iowa at a Glance
Full-time NP positions in Iowa typically bundle employer-sponsored health insurance, 401(k) match, CME allowance, malpractice coverage, and 3–4 weeks of PTO into a $110K–$170K base. Total-comp comparisons against contract or per-diem rates should net out the benefits self-funded employers don't have to cover. Iowa grants full practice authority — independent prescribing without physician oversight, and the state's cost of living near the national average (index 100) directly shapes NP compensation expectations. The 4 active postings reflect a smaller pool of openings for nurse practitioners across Iowa, alongside the state's reimbursement structure and employer mix.
