Benefits

Discover the benefits of being a travel nurse with American Traveler, including competitive salaries, referral bonuses, and 401(k) retirement plans.

A career in travel nursing opens up a world of exciting opportunities. Traveling offers not only flexibility, assignment choices, adventure in new locals, and the chance to meet new people, but a host of other perks as well. As our travelers' reviews attest, when you work with American Traveler, you get:

Enjoy competitive salaries, lucrative reimbursements, and bonuses while traveling the country. Receive top pay along with reimbursements for travel expenses and state licensure costs. Earn additional income by referring your friends and colleagues. You’ll get a bonus for each referral who completes a full-length assignment with us through our referral program.

Enjoy the added benefit of a generous housing allowance designed to enhance your living experience. Providing flexibility to choose the ideal housing that caters to your unique needs, the housing allowance is extended to those traveling solo, with a spouse, significant other, kids, friends, and pets. Even those traveling with campers, trailers, or boats can qualify. So find the perfect accommodations, whether it be a furnished private apartment in close proximity to your facility employer, or a bungalow just off the beaten path.

Increase your weekly take-home pay through tax-free allowances for housing, meals, and incidentals. These expenses may be considered non-taxable for qualifying travel healthcare professionals. Seek the advice of a tax professional to ensure accurate compliance.

Access a comprehensive benefits package complete with health, dental, vision, and life insurance, including Day 1 options — along with liability insurance and worker’s compensation. Premier plans feature flexible coverage to meet your specific needs. Opt to insure yourself, one dependent, or two or more, with access to preventative care, routine checkups, and treatments anytime the need arises. Plus, every job comes with professional liability insurance, malpractice insurance, and worker’s compensation.

Secure your future by enrolling in our 401(k) retirement plan with generous employer matching. You choose what percentage of your earnings to contribute -- and we will match your contributions at the established rate. Employees are eligible to enroll on their first day of employment; employer contribution starts on the first day of enrollment.

As a part of our commitment to career advancement and education, we provide our travelers with complimentary access to unlimited online continuing education credits (CEUs).
