Contract & Benefits

Physician Recruitment Process and Compensation Overview

This is a salaried Wound Care NP position with no confirmed production incentive component. No base salary was provided; benchmarking is drawn from the 2025 MGMA dataset for Nurse Practitioner: Hyperbaric Medicine / Wound Care. The MGMA western region data for this specialty is suppressed due to limited sample size, so overall national benchmarks are used. At 5 clinical days per week and an estimated 14 patients per day over 48 weeks, projected annual visit volume is approximately 3,360, placing estimated production above the MGMA national median for this NP specialty. Because compensation is flat with no production incentive, total earnings equal base salary; financial upside at hire comes from sign-on and relocation bonuses. All figures should be confirmed directly with Astria Health leadership before candidate presentation.
