Understanding Your Pay Package
Top pay is great reason to travel as a healthcare professional. More often than not, traveling pays better than full time, permanent positions. In addition to higher pay, there are added benefits associated with traveling, such as tax-free incentives in the form of “per diems.”
When our travelers ask us about pay rates upfront, we are unable to answer this question precisely as most of our facilities are set up on a pay scale range. There isn’t a singular set rate for a discipline nationwide. We can quote an average pay rate and definitely want to float around this number, if not higher. Your pay rate is determined by multiple factors, each facility has a different budget or urgency. A job with a large amount of submittals make it harder to push a higher rate.
