State Insights
Pennsylvania at a Glance
Hospitalist NP positions in Pennsylvania run on block schedules — commonly seven-on/seven-off — covering admissions, rounding, and cross-cover, typically paying $110K–$150K. Acute care certification (AGACNP) is the preferred credential at most of the state's hospital medicine programs. Pennsylvania grants reduced practice authority requiring a collaborative agreement with a physician, and the state's cost of living near the national average (index 100) directly shapes NP compensation expectations. The 2 active postings reflect a smaller pool of openings for nurse practitioners across Pennsylvania, alongside the state's reimbursement structure and employer mix.
