Chicago Med Cast Salaries Ranked from Lowest to Highest
Chicago Med's earning some great income for NBC alongside its sister shows, Chicago Fire and Chicago PD — but what about the actors themselves?
At some point, we all grow curious about how much our favorite actors make while performing in our favorite shows, and it's completely fine.
Wondering about these things is OK, everyone does that. Don't let the Chicago Med 's doctors convince you otherwise: we're all normal here, you and us. Don't listen to them.
Let's see how much they're earning, instead.
Here are the top 10 cast members ranked by their salary per episode as of 2022 — do you think you know who makes the most?
10. Rachel Dipillo — $45,000
Rachel's Dr. Sarah Reese went through a lot: from giving up on her dream of becoming a pathologist to dealing with an overly-complicated relationship with her father who turned out to be a suspected serial killer.
She's an amazing doctor, and Dipillo's performance made her $45K per episode.
9. Julie Berman — $55,000
Julie's Dr. Samantha Zanetti was only around for eight episodes, but she definitely was a charmer.
She was an assistant trauma surgeon at Gaffney Chicago Medical Center and Dr. Connor Rhodes' girlfriend — and she was making Julie Berman $55K per episode back in the day.
8. Yaya DaCosta — $60,000
Yaya's April Sexton had a relationship with Dr. Choi (which the fans love!), and she is also a childhood friend of Kelly Severide from Chicago Fire.
DaCosta's salary per episode used to be $60K.
7. Patti Murin — $65,000
For three years, Patti's been playing Dr. Nina Shore who we remember for having a romantic relationship with Will, among other things.
Murin was making $65K per episode for her role as Dr. Shore.
6. Mekia Cox — $68,500
Mekia's Dr. Robyn Charles has gone through a lot in Chicago Med: she was misdiagnosed with schizophrenia and, like Dr. Reese, didn't have the easiest relationship with her father.
This role paid Mekia Cox $68.5K per episode.
5. Sophia Bush — $70,000
Sophia Bush only appeared in Chicago Med's six episodes as her main role is on its sister show, Chicago PD.
However, even her Erin Lindsay's brief appearances in Med were earning her $70K per episode.
4. Norma Kuhling — $75,000
Norma's Dr. Ava Bekker had an intense rivalry with Dr. Rhodes. It then quickly became a romance… And then she committed suicide.
Her character's tragic fate didn't prevent Norma from making $75K per episode, though.
3. Marlyne Barrett — $77,000
Marlyne's Maggie Lockwood is the baldest nurse in TV history, it seems. She even fought breast cancer — and earned a happy fairytale ending with the love of her life.
Apart from that, the bold nurse also earned Marlyne Barrett $77K per episode.
2. Ato Essandoh — $80,000
Ato's Dr. Latham became Head of Cardiothoracic Surgery after the previous Head's passing and was known to struggle with grasping his patients' emotions due to his autism spectrum disorder.
For this role, Essandoh was making $80K per episode.
1. Nick Gehlfuss – $110,000
Nick Gehlfuss' Dr. Will Halstead became an ED monitoring physician at the very beginning of Chicago Med.
His dynamic with Natalie has been keeping the audience's attention since day one — and for that, Nick was bagging $110K per episode which made him the highest-paying actor of Chicago Med.
