Full-time salary (FT) based on 142 of 303 active listings. Locum and per-diem/PRN rates are hourly, not annualized — averaged separately from 89 locum/PRN listings.
Employment Mix
44 of the above are tagged per diem — that's a separate, overlapping classification (a per diem job can be permanent or locum), so it's not counted as a third slice above.

Full-time listings with a published salary only — excludes locum and per-diem/PRN postings, which are a subset of all active listings, and is why the counts here are lower than "Jobs by State" below. Locum/PRN rates are hourly and tracked separately.
Jobs by State
Counts every active listing in the state, regardless of whether it publishes a salary — that's why totals here run higher than the "Listings" column in Highest Paying States.
