State Insights
Illinois at a Glance
Oncology NP roles in Illinois concentrate around the state's cancer centers and hematology-oncology groups, typically paying $110K–$150K. NP-led survivorship programs are an expanding share of the state's oncology hiring as survivor populations grow. Illinois 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 4 active postings reflect a smaller pool of openings for nurse practitioners across Illinois, alongside the state's reimbursement structure and employer mix.
