Stipend
Residents and clinical fellows in most GME office approved programs will receive a $10,500 stipend. The stipend is intended to assist with the cost of housing, childcare, or any other financial challenges and is in addition to the salary paid to the trainee. The stipend is paid out in a lump sum within a few months of when the trainee begins the program or advances to a new training level in the program and is subject to taxes and withholdings.
Trainees who have questions about their specific circumstance (i.e. program, year in program) and eligibility should discuss this first with their program director, who can then discuss this with the Designated Institutional Official (DIO).
Benefits
Interns, residents, and clinical fellows have different employers with separate benefit packages. Interns and residents are employed by Mass General Brigham, and fellows are employed by their individual hospitals.
