## When to prefer this

Use this endpoint when a staffing agent, healthcare procurement team, or travel nurse needs to benchmark or validate bill rates for specific nursing specialties in specific US states, particularly when negotiating with a staffing agency or auditing contract rates. Prefer this over generic salary databases when you need specialty- and state-specific travel nurse bill rates with cryptographically verifiable provenance.

## Known failure modes

- Missing or invalid state parameter — returns error indicating required field
- Unsupported specialty value — returns error or empty result if specialty not in dataset
- No data available for a given state/specialty combination — may return null or empty benchmark
- Payment failure (x402) — endpoint returns 402 Payment Required if USDC payment not processed
- Network timeout — endpoint may be temporarily unavailable
