Health boards in the north and north-east are still struggling to attract nurses despite offering generous packages.
NHS Grampian and Highland still need to find hundreds of nurses to fill vacant posts at busy hospitals across both regions.
Figures obtained through freedom of information revealed that since 2017 there has been £82,000 spent to attract 20 staff to the Highlands.
Meanwhile, in the north-east there has been £166,873 paid out but it was unclear how many workers received this cash.
