Telehealth Pay Report
First edition — 2026-10-27. Every figure below is computed from pay actually listed on public telehealth job postings collected in our own feed pool (86 salary-bearing listings out of 755 live). Nothing is self-reported, surveyed, or invented.
Median listed pay by role
Deep-dives with employer-by-employer tables: Physician pay · Nurse Practitioner pay · Physician Assistant pay · Registered Nurse pay

State × role matrix — listed pay
States where the pool carries at least 3 salary-bearing live listings, computed from the live pool on 2026-10-27. — means no listed pay for that role in that state yet — thin data stays honest. n = listings the median comes from; "est." = hourly rate annualized at 2080 h/yr. BLS median: Occupational Employment and Wage Statistics, May 2025 — the government figure for the whole occupation in that state, all work settings, not telehealth-specific. Source: bls.gov/oes.

How to read this
Listed pay is what an employer advertises — it skews toward roles employers compete on (psychiatry, primary care) and says little about bonuses or benefits. The BLS column is the government median for the whole occupation, telehealth or not; the listed column is our niche slice. Where they differ, both are telling the truth about different things.
Methodology
- Source: every listing in our pool on 2026-10-27 carries the pay the employer published (min/max as given; unit re-checked against the posting text, never trusted blindly).
- Annualization: hourly figures × 2080h, monthly × 12, weekly × 52 — each marked as an estimate in the role row.
- Roles with fewer than 5 salary-bearing listings are omitted entirely — small samples would be noise dressed as data.
- BLS context: Occupational Outlook Handbook medians (May 2025), linked per row.
- Next edition: the next quarterly pull re-runs this page; movement between editions is the trend.
