Texas Overview
Working as an NP in Texas
Texas currently has 44 active nurse practitioner postings from 13 employers, with hiring concentrated in Austin, Dallas, and Arlington. By posting volume, the most active categories right now are Full-Time, Psychiatric Mental Health, and Part-Time. On the regulatory side, AANP places Texas in its restricted practice category. AANP uses this category where state law restricts the ability of NPs to engage in at least one element of NP practice, for example through supervision, delegation or team management by another health provider. States in the same category still set different requirements, so check the Texas rules themselves before applying. Across Texas postings that disclose annual pay, the median is $139K per year. Texas's Nurse Licensure Compact membership covers the RN license beneath the APRN credential. The APRN license itself is still issued by Texas.
Posted pay in Texas
The median posted salary for NP roles in Texas is $139K, and the middle half of postings runs $126K to $140K. It is based on 6 postings from 4 employers that list annual pay. Hourly, estimated and non-NP postings are excluded.
