State Insights
Kentucky at a Glance
Full-time PMHNP positions in Kentucky 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. Kentucky grants reduced practice authority requiring a collaborative agreement with a physician, and the state's cost of living near the national average (index 100) directly shapes PMHNP compensation expectations. Top metros in Kentucky are not currently federally designated mental health shortage areas, but regional psychiatric demand and reimbursement structure shape compensation. The 11 active postings reflect moderate demand for PMHNPs in the state.
Kentucky requires a collaborative agreement for PMHNP practice.
