Family Medicine — Nurse Practitioner Career Context

This Family Medicine position at UnitedHealth Group is open to nurse practitioner candidates.

Nurse Practitioners are among the fastest-growing healthcare professions, with expanding scope of practice in many states and strong demand for telehealth and primary care roles.

Nationally, Family Medicine professionals earn a median annual salary of approximately $265k, with the typical range spanning $200k to $340k depending on experience, location, and practice setting.

Remote nurse practitioner positions in Family Medicine have grown significantly in recent years, offering clinicians the ability to maintain a full patient panel without geographic constraints or commute-related burnout.

Compensation Analysis

UnitedHealth Group lists compensation for this nurse practitioner position at $105k to $156k annually.
