How are the new Take Home Pay Rates for nurses different from a “tax advantage” program?
Our new take home pay rate for nurses includes a daily meals and incidentals expense, which is also typically the basis of a “tax advantage” program. This expense allows you to receive more after-tax dollars in each paycheck. Travelers with a permanent tax home will see the maximum benefit of this compensation package.
