Does anyone know what benefits a DNP offers over an MSN degree? I'm looking into being an NP in Women's Health and curious about which degree would be the best for me.

Good, then you know. You should look at the BLS and look at the highest-paid areas in the US for Registered Nurses and then look at the salaries for the county jobs. In a few weeks, all salaries in California will be made public. All of these assumptions can stop and everyone can move on. Thing is, you guys talk out of jealousy. I had a CNA tell me that she did the exact same work as I did as an RN. She despised new RNs. That's on her. If you want to make money, enroll in NP school, and get it going. Or be an MD or DO. It's the same thing, but do something.  

I have no idea how many times I have to tell you but I AM a NP (ACNP). Obviously better trained and likely with more experience than you.

Being jealous of something I am? LOL....

But they are. They are at a much higher level than PAs who do not have independent scope, and they are at the same level as DOs and MDs.

Those are the facts, not feelings. 

According to who? Lobbying bodies? Nice one. Got any non-nursing org studies to prove that?

You might be jealous of the pay.
