Advanced Practice Provider Jobs in Colorado: Frequently Asked Questions

How do you become a advanced practice provider in Colorado?

To become an advanced practice provider in Colorado, you must complete a graduate-level clinical program and obtain licensure through the Colorado Medical Board for physician assistants or the Colorado State Board of Nursing for advanced practice registered nurses. Both boards require national board certification and a completed application before you can practice. APRNs in Colorado may apply for full practice authority, allowing independent prescribing and patient management without a collaborative agreement.

How much do advanced practice providers make in Colorado?

Advanced practice providers in Colorado earn a median of about $132,930 a year, based on May 2025 Bureau of Labor Statistics wage data, ranging from around $87,770 for the lowest 10% to over $170,310 for the top 10%. Pay rises with experience, specialty, and employer.

Which companies hire advanced practice providers in Colorado?

Companies currently hiring advanced practice providers in Colorado include University of Colorado, Intermountain Health, and National Jewish Health, per current listings on Migrate Mate as of August 2026. Colorado's large integrated health systems, federally qualified health centers, and multi-specialty ambulatory groups are consistently among the most active employers for this role across the state.

Which Colorado cities have the most advanced practice provider jobs?

Aurora, Denver, and Grand Junction have the most advanced practice provider openings in Colorado. Denver anchors the market as home to major academic medical centers and regional health system headquarters, while Colorado Springs and Aurora generate strong volume through military-affiliated clinics, VA facilities, and growing suburban health campuses that serve rapidly expanding populations along the Front Range.

Are there remote advanced practice provider jobs in Colorado?

Yes, but they're rare. Advanced practice provider work is predominantly hands-on and patient-facing, which limits full remote arrangements significantly. About 21% of advanced practice provider openings tied to Colorado are remote or hybrid as of August 2026, and those positions are concentrated in telehealth platforms covering behavioral health, chronic disease management, and urgent care triage rather than primary procedural or diagnostic roles.

How can I get hired as a advanced practice provider in Colorado with little or no experience?

The most realistic entry path is through a new graduate residency or fellowship program. UCHealth and Children's Hospital Colorado both run structured APP transition-to-practice programs designed for clinicians without post-graduation experience. Newly credentialed providers often enter through acute care float pool positions or urgent care roles, which accept new graduates and build broad clinical exposure quickly. Completing your Colorado licensure before applying and obtaining full practice authority as an APRN strengthens your candidacy considerably at practices seeking independent providers.

Where can I find and apply to advanced practice provider jobs in Colorado?

You can find and apply to advanced practice provider jobs in Colorado on Migrate Mate, which lists current Colorado openings across specialties, settings, and experience levels. Search the roles that match your credentials and the type of practice you want, then apply directly to the ones that fit.
