Following projections of an emergency medicine (EM) physician oversupply, the growth of EM residency programs affiliated with for‐profit hospitals has been subject to increased attention and speculation. However, essentially no literature exists regarding these programs. Resident pay is one area where these programs could differ from nonprofit‐affiliated programs, as investor obligations could make for‐profit corporations more likely to reduce resident salaries to increase profit margins. Here, we aim to quantify the growth of EM for‐profit affiliated residency programs from 2001–2021 and determine if PGY1 salaries differ between these program types.
