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.
