State Insights
Wisconsin at a Glance
Contract PMHNP positions in Wisconsin are typically defined-term W-2 engagements (90 days to 24 months) booked through staffing agencies, with agency-provided malpractice. Distinct from 1099 independent contracting, contract roles preserve employer payroll-tax handling and often include short-term health coverage, which is why the hourly rate and the salaried equivalent are not directly comparable. Wisconsin grants reduced practice authority requiring a collaborative agreement with a physician. The 3 active postings reflect a smaller pool of openings for PMHNPs in Wisconsin.
Wisconsin PMHNPs practice in collaboration with a physician or dentist until they complete 3,840 hours of RN practice and 3,840 hours of advanced practice with a physician or dentist available for consultation, plus minimum elapsed times, after which they may practice independently (2025 Wisconsin Act 17, effective September 1, 2026).
