FAQ
Per Diem NP Questions
What is a per diem NP?
A per diem NP works on an as needed basis, picking up shifts at healthcare facilities without a fixed schedule or a long-term commitment. Per diem means "per day": you are paid for each day you work, and the listing states the rate and the shifts it covers.
How much do per diem NPs earn?
9 of 24 listings state an annual salary. A median appears once at least 5 listings from 3 employers do, with no single employer above 40% of them. Until then, compare pay listing by listing. Nationally, nurse practitioners earn a median annual wage of $132,300 (BLS OEWS, Nurse Practitioners (29-1171), median annual wage, May 2025). Per diem work is usually quoted per hour or per shift, and annual income depends on how many shifts you pick up, so compare offers on the same basis.
What is the difference between per diem and PRN?
Per diem and PRN (pro re nata, meaning "as needed") are often used interchangeably. Both describe on-call, shift based work without guaranteed hours. Some facilities distinguish between them, with per diem carrying a minimum shift commitment while PRN is truly as needed, so read the listing.
Do per diem NPs get benefits?
Most per diem positions do not include benefits such as health insurance or paid time off. Some hospital systems extend limited benefits, for example a retirement plan, to per diem staff who work a minimum number of shifts. The listing or the recruiter can confirm what a specific role includes.
Can I work per diem at multiple facilities?
Yes. Many per diem NPs are credentialed at more than one facility, which widens shift availability. Check any non-compete clause and confirm that each facility provides or accepts your malpractice coverage.
