Most Toledo employers building a range for this role anchor the midpoint to the market median ($118,000) and set range width at 30–35% — a min of $103,000 and a max of $136,000. This keeps the band wide enough for experience-based progression without concentrating range penetration at the cap.

Ohio pay transparency compliance for NP job postings

What you must post when hiring a NP in Ohio.

Not required statewide. Ohio has no statewide pay transparency law. Posting a range is optional — but roughly half of healthcare employers in the market now disclose ranges voluntarily, and candidates increasingly skip postings without one.

For a NP role in Toledo, a compliant good-faith range looks like $103,000 to $136,000. No statutory requirement applies, but if you disclose voluntarily, post a good-faith range of $103,000–$136,000 rather than a single number — it screens out misaligned candidates and reduces offer-stage fallout.

No statewide law requires a posted range in Ohio. Disclosing one voluntarily — a good-faith range such as $103,000–$136,000 — is increasingly the market norm and improves application rates.
$106,000 falls below the Toledo market median of $118,000 — roughly at the 25th–50th percentile locally. Acceptable in SNF or physician office settings where the candidate pool is deeper; below-market for hospital or specialty roles.
Roughly 64% of Toledo NP postings include a sign-on bonus ($8K–$19K). Health systems lead; FQHCs offer loan repayment instead.
Average fill time is approximately 30 days in the Toledo metro. Roles paid above the 75th percentile ($136K+) fill in roughly 18–22 days. Roles below the 25th percentile ($103K) commonly take 45+ days and have elevated turnover within the first 90 days.

A 30–35% range width (min to max) is standard for NP in Toledo — for example, $103,000 to $136,000. Narrower than 25% compresses progression and creates compa-ratio pressure within 18 months.
No. Ohio has no pay transparency law covering internal or external postings. Note that remote roles open to candidates in states like Colorado or California may still trigger those states' disclosure requirements.
