Salary tables

Upcoming intern here. When interviewing and after the match programs give you a table with salaries broken down by every year.

Example:
PGY1 - 50,000
PGY2 - 52,000
PGY3 - 54,000
...

Generally these salaries get increased at each level from year to year. So my question is, do you stick to the original salary table you get throughout your residency, or do you move to the new salary tables each year? If for example, next year's table has PGY2's making 53,000, would you get paid 53,000 next year or would you get the 52,000 you were originally quoted?

You get paid whatever they pay PGY-X residents the year that you're a PGY-X.

Please note that this can cut both ways however as there have been recent examples of programs decreasing pay from year-to-year due to budget cuts. This is rare, but not unheard of.

You get "raises" like everyone else.

The salary tables reflect salaries for current ranks only.

Generally, they are inflation or psuedo-inflation adjusted. So if says PGY-2 $52K, then hopefully you should get slightly more than that when you hit that rank in the future.
