State Insights
Illinois at a Glance
Part-time PMHNP roles in Illinois run 16 to 32 scheduled hours weekly, with prorated benefits at larger health systems and none at smaller practices. The structure is popular for clinicians maintaining a private practice on the side or stepping down from a full caseload. Openings are thin enough here that most clinicians pair one with telehealth coverage. Illinois grants reduced practice authority requiring a collaborative agreement with a physician. The 6 active postings reflect a smaller pool of openings for PMHNPs in Illinois.
Illinois PMHNPs start under a written collaborative agreement. After 4,000 clinical hours and 250 hours of continuing education they can attest to full practice authority, though Schedule II narcotics still need physician consultation and benzodiazepines need it beyond a 120-day supply (225 ILCS 65/65-43).
