Registered Nurse (General) roles account for 50% of postings, with Home Health and Medical Surgery specializations filling most of the remainder. Compensation in healthcare tracks nearly even with the sitewide median at $84K, while remote work remains minimal at 2%, reflecting the on-site nature of clinical care. The concentration of nursing roles—three specializations representing the vast majority of openings—means candidates in those tracks face a narrower but deeper candidate pool, whereas roles outside nursing encounter far sparser demand. This role-heavy skew persists month to month, signaling that healthcare hiring remains anchored to bedside and home-visit positions rather than diversifying into administrative or support functions. - Roles in Healthcare concentrate in Registered Nurse (General) (50% of postings), followed by Home Health Registered Nurse and Medical Surgery Registered Nurse. - Pay at Healthcare is in line with the sitewide median ($84K vs $83K). - Remote share at Healthcare held steady around 2% (vs 2% last month). *Numbers above are computed from active job postings indexed during the snapshot window. Salary figures use posted ranges where available; sitewide medians are recomputed monthly from the full index. Confidence reflects sample size and signal stability vs the prior month.* ## Industries in Healthcare - [Medical Equipment Manufacturing Jobs](https://www.foundrole.com/sectors/healthcare/medical-equipment-manufacturing) -

The Healthcare sector includes clinical and non-clinical roles. Clinical positions: registered nurses, physicians, medical assistants, physical therapists, and allied health workers. Non-clinical roles: healthcare administration, health informatics, medical billing and coding, revenue cycle management, and health IT. Employers range from hospitals and health systems to pharmaceutical companies, medical device manufacturers, insurers, and biotech firms. ### What are typical salaries for healthcare jobs? Healthcare salaries vary by role and employer type. Registered nurses earn $65,000–$95,000 depending on specialty and location. Physicians and surgeons average well above $200,000. Healthcare administrators earn $70,000–$120,000; health IT specialists typically $80,000–$130,000. FoundRole's salary benchmarks reflect current market and H1B LCA data. ### Is the Healthcare sector growing, and are there good long-term career prospects? Healthcare is among the fastest-growing employment sectors in the US. The US Bureau of Labor Statistics projects healthcare occupations will grow significantly faster than average through 2030, driven by an aging population and expanding access to care. In-demand roles include registered nurses, nurse practitioners, medical and health services managers, and health informatics specialists. ### Are remote or hybrid healthcare jobs available? Remote and hybrid opportunities have expanded, particularly in non-clinical roles. Health IT, medical coding, revenue cycle management, care management, and telehealth positions are frequently remote or hybrid. Clinical positions — nursing, direct patient care, surgical roles — generally require on-site presence. Telehealth has created partially remote options for physicians and mental health professionals. ### Do healthcare employers sponsor H1B visas? Yes — healthcare is a leading sector for H1B sponsorship in the US. Hospitals, health systems, pharmaceutical companies, and biotech firms regularly file H1B Labor Condition Applications for physicians, registered nurses, research scientists, and health IT professionals. FoundRole's H1B LCA data covers sponsored healthcare roles with median wage filings from the US Department of Labor. ## Related - [Browse all companies](https://www.foundrole.com/companies) - [Search jobs](https://www.foundrole.com/jobs)
