  • Where can I make the most as a CRNA?

    • The top three highest-paying states for CRNAs are Illinois, Massachusetts, and Montana according to the U.S. Bureau of Labor Statistics. The cost of living can be attributed to the higher levels of pay for CRNA jobs in Illinois and Massachusetts. As for Montana, the state is almost entirely rural, meaning there are issues with access to adequate care, leading to a higher demand and pay packages for CRNAs.

  • Can a CRNA practice independently?

    • Depending on the state of licensure, CRNAs can practice independently—granting them the ability to prescribe medication, among other critical responsibilities.

  • Do locum companies offer malpractice insurance for CRNAs?

    • While we cannot answer for other locum companies, Wellhart offers comprehensive malpractice insurance to all healthcare professionals who work with us, at no cost to the healthcare professional.

  • How many hours can a locum CRNA work?

    • A CRNA can work as many hours their contract allows. Since Wellhart works with many diverse facilities, the need and hours required are dependent on the terms of the contract. Depending on the facility, you may work eight hour days for four days a week, and have the option to take on weekend shifts.

  • Is the CRNA position becoming oversaturated?

    • No—the CRNA position is not becoming oversatured. The United States is experiencing a nationwide shortage of CRNAs and this disparity is only expected to grow. The BLS projects that over the next decade, there will be more CRNA job openings than clinicians ready to fill the positions.

  • Can CRNAs work in dental offices?

    • Yes, depending on the state and facility, Wellhart can recruit CRNAs for dental offices. To view the map of states who provide state dental board permit status to CRNAs, visit the American Association of Nurse Anesthesiology’s website.
