How this pay compares

This assignment posts $2,017 a week, the agency's gross: a taxable hourly rate plus housing and meal stipends. Open travel physical therapist assignments post a median of $2,268 a week, the middle half $2,050 to $2,460, across 1,317 assignments, so this one is below the middle half of what they post. Staff pay is hourly and carries no stipends, so it is not set beside it.

Licensed in another state?

Georgia issues and accepts PT Compact privileges: a physical therapist or PT assistant whose home state is a member can take this job on a compact privilege instead of a Georgia license, $110 for a PT. (PT Compact Commission, 9 Nov 2026.) For a Georgia license, apply to the Georgia State Board of Physical Therapy for a license by endorsement: what Georgia asks. Every state's PT Compact status.
