Tennessee at a Glance
Behavioral-health NP roles across Tennessee span outpatient clinics, telehealth platforms, and integrated care settings, typically paying $120K–$170K, with demand elevated by nationwide prescriber shortages. Tennessee grants restricted practice authority requiring physician supervision, 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 Tennessee, alongside the state's reimbursement structure and employer mix.
