The definitive ranking of which states are best for physicians continues.

The time has come once again to lay out the definitive Physicians Practice ranking of which states in the union are the best suited for practicing medicine in 2024.

These rankings are based on seven criteria using data from publicly available sources and Physicians Practice partners. The criteria are:

  • Cost of living
  • Physician density
  • Amount of state business taxes collected
  • Average malpractice insurance rates
  • Quality of life
  • Women’s health care
  • Geographic Practice Cost Indices (GPCI)
