State Insights
Illinois at a Glance
Part-time PMHNP roles in Illinois generally pay $60–$100 per hour and run 16–32 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. Illinois grants reduced practice authority requiring a collaborative agreement with a physician, and the state's cost of living near the national average (index 108) directly shapes PMHNP compensation expectations. Top metros in Illinois are not currently federally designated mental health shortage areas, but regional psychiatric demand and reimbursement structure shape compensation. The 44 active postings reflect strong demand for PMHNPs in the state.
Illinois requires a written collaborative agreement for PMHNPs.
