Kaylyn's Story: How AMN Passport Improved a Travel PT's Experience
Travel healthcare professionals have a career filled with unique challenges and opportunities. For Kaylyn, a physical therapist and seasoned traveler, AMN Passport has been instrumental in streamlining her workflow and managing the demands of being a travel professional. Here’s a closer look at her experience, including her favorite features and suggestions for future users.
Starting the Journey
From a young age, Kaylyn knew she wanted to be in healthcare helping people heal. Kaylyn began her career as a travel physical therapist straight out of school, skipping traditional permanent roles. “I didn’t work a permanent job beforehand. I mainly worked on the East Coast, but I’ve also spent some time in Alaska. I'd love to go back to Alaska,” she shared, reflecting on her adventurous start.
While Kaylyn didn't have experience with comparable apps, AMN Passport quickly became a frequent tool once it was introduced. "Since it’s been available, I’ve used AMN Passport for most of my contracts,” she explained.
Stand Out Features
AMN Passport has enhanced Kaylyn’s professional workflow. Among the most impactful components is the Task Center, which she cited as her favorite feature. “That’s honestly probably the thing I like most about the app. If I have a new assignment, I know where to submit my credentials immediately instead of searching around or constantly reaching out to my recruiter.” The Task Center keeps her assignments on track and simplifies credential management, which can often be a hurdle for travel professionals.
Kaylyn highlighted the ease of reimbursement submissions. “Submitting reimbursements at the end of a contract is so much easier. I used to have to go through my recruiter and wait for it to be passed along to someone else. Now, I can just submit it directly, and it’s done.”
When it comes to managing assignments efficiently, the app offers a clear progress percentage for credentialing, showing what still needs to be completed. For Kaylyn, this visual aid provides clarity and a sense of control.
Another notable tool for her has been the “Saved Search” feature during job searches. “I typically save the states and settings I’m interested in, and it speeds up the whole process.” Features like these allow healthcare providers to tailor their experience and save time.

Kaylyn also praised the app for its ability to provide independence and efficiency. Before AMN Passport, much of her administrative work required multiple intermediary steps. Today, she enjoys a smoother workflow and can better focus on what she loves most about her career—helping patients improve their quality of life.
