Advertised weekly pay on the open travel therapy contracts in ProTherapy Staffing's feed, by discipline and by state. A median is shown only where enough contracts back it.
Every figure on this board comes from one place: the open travel therapy contracts in ProTherapy Staffing's job feed, 943 contracts in all, pay data as of 2026-10-05. Each figure is the advertised weekly gross for the contract: taxable wages plus stipends, before tax. Nothing on the board is a survey, a submission or an estimate.
| Discipline | Open contracts | 10th percentile | Median | 90th percentile |
|---|---|---|---|---|

| OT | 140 | $2,130 | $2,280 | $2,630 |
| SLP | 95 | $2,130 | $2,280 | $2,770 |
| PTA | 233 | $1,260 | $1,540 | $1,820 |
| COTA | 127 | $1,260 | $1,540 | $1,710 |
A median is shown only where at least 5 contracts back it; a percentile only where enough contracts sit outside it on both sides. A dash means the feed is too thin to say.
The PT median is $2,340 and the OT median is $2,280, a $60 gap. That is under the 5% line this board uses before it calls two disciplines different, so it does not.
The PTA median is $1,540 and the COTA median is $1,540, a $0 gap. That is under the 5% line this board uses before it calls two disciplines different, so it does not.
The wider gap is between therapists and assistants: the PT median sits $800 a week above the PTA median, about 34% of the PT figure.
A state gets a median for a discipline only when at least 5 of that discipline's contracts are open there. For each discipline: how many states have any open contract, how many clear that bar, and the spread between the state medians that do. The full state-by-state table is on the salary map.

A state median is the median of that state's open contracts in that discipline, every setting together. Settings are compared on the settings page.

From the open travel therapy contracts in ProTherapy Staffing's job feed: each figure is a median of the weekly pay those contracts are advertised at. Nothing is taken from surveys or submissions.
No. It is weekly gross, taxable wages plus stipends, before any tax. What you keep depends on your tax home, your state and your own situation.
A median is published only where at least 5 contracts back it. Below that, one contract can swing the figure, so the board shows a dash instead.
The feed records each contract's total weekly pay, not how an agency splits it into a taxable rate and stipends. Ask for that breakdown in writing for any contract you are offered.
