On Call Stipends

Residents are entitled to receive a call stipend amount for in-hospital call, out-of-hospital call (home call) and qualifying shifts.

There will be a weekday and weekend call stipend for residents scheduled for in-hospital call, and for residents scheduled for home call or for qualifying shifts (including emergency department and other night shifts). Qualifying shifts are only those shifts where one full hour worked on the shift occurs between midnight and 6 a.m.

Type of Stipend Effective July 1, 2022
Weekday In-hospital $132.67 
Weekend In-hospital $145.95
Weekday Home Call/Qualifying Stipend $66.34
Weekend Home Call/Qualifying Stipend $72.97
