State Insights
Iowa at a Glance
Full-time PMHNP positions in Iowa typically bundle employer-sponsored health insurance, 401(k) match, CME allowance, malpractice coverage, and 3–4 weeks of PTO into a $130K–$190K base. Total-comp comparisons against contract or per-diem rates should net out the benefits self-funded employers don't have to cover. Iowa grants full practice authority — independent prescribing without physician oversight, and the state's cost of living near the national average (index 100) directly shapes PMHNP compensation expectations. Top metros in Iowa are not currently federally designated mental health shortage areas, but regional psychiatric demand and reimbursement structure shape compensation. The 3 active postings reflect a smaller pool of openings for PMHNPs in the state.
Iowa PMHNPs have independent practice and prescriptive authority.
