Advanced Practice Provider Jobs in Texas: Frequently Asked Questions
How do you become a advanced practice provider in Texas?
To work as an advanced practice provider in Texas, nurse practitioners must obtain licensure through the Texas Board of Nursing, while physician assistants are licensed by the Texas Physician Assistant Board. Both pathways require completion of an accredited graduate program, national board certification, and a state application. Nurse practitioners in Texas practice under a collaborative practice agreement with a supervising physician, so securing that agreement is a required step before clinical practice begins.
How much do advanced practice providers make in Texas?
Advanced practice providers in Texas earn a median of about $131,670 a year, based on May 2025 Bureau of Labor Statistics wage data, ranging from around $96,880 for the lowest 10% to over $161,980 for the top 10%. Pay rises with experience, specialty, and employer.
Which companies hire advanced practice providers in Texas?
Employers hiring advanced practice providers in Texas right now include UT Southwestern Medical Center, University of Texas Medical Branch, and Medical City Healthcare, based on current listings on Migrate Mate as of October 2026. Texas's large integrated health systems and growing network of multispecialty outpatient groups drive sustained, year-round hiring across urban and suburban markets.
Which Texas cities have the most advanced practice provider jobs?
Dallas, Houston, and Galveston consistently post the highest volume of advanced practice provider openings in Texas. Houston's concentration of Level I trauma centers and the Texas Medical Center fuels the largest share of listings, while Dallas-Fort Worth's sprawling suburban hospital networks and San Antonio's military-affiliated medical institutions sustain strong demand across both metro areas.
Are there remote advanced practice provider jobs in Texas?
Yes, but they're rare. Advanced practice provider work is fundamentally hands-on and clinic-based, so most positions require in-person patient care. About 19% of advanced practice provider openings tied to Texas are remote or hybrid as of October 2026, and those roles tend to concentrate in telehealth triage, chronic disease management, or utilization review functions that don't require direct physical examination.
How can I get hired as a advanced practice provider in Texas with little or no experience?
The most realistic entry path is applying to new graduate or transition-to-practice residency programs, which Baylor Scott & White Health, UT Southwestern Medical Center, and Memorial Hermann Health System offer specifically for newly credentialed APPs. Targeting urgent care and primary care clinic roles, which carry lighter acuity than inpatient settings, also lowers the experience threshold. Candidates who complete their clinical rotations within a Texas health system often convert to staff positions, so selecting Texas-based preceptorships strategically gives a meaningful hiring edge.
Where can I find and apply to advanced practice provider jobs in Texas?
You can find and apply to advanced practice provider jobs in Texas on Migrate Mate, which lists current Texas openings across health systems, outpatient practices, and specialty groups. Find roles that fit your specialty and preferred location, then apply directly to each position.
