What is the H-1B prevailing wage for General Internal Medicine Physicians?

For the 2026–27 wage year (July 1, 2026 – June 30, 2027), the Department of Labor publishes H-1B prevailing wages for General Internal Medicine Physicians (SOC 29-1216) in 530 U.S. wage areas. Across metro areas, the Level I wage ranges from $52,708 in Saginaw, MI to $225,098 in Reno, NV, and the median Level IV wage across 64 major H-1B metros is $304,762. Because the weighted H-1B lottery gives one entry per wage level, location changes the outcome: an offer of $237,994, the typical Level III threshold, reaches Level IV (four entries) in 11 of 64 major metros but only Level II or below in 31. DHS projects selection odds of about 15%, 31%, 46% and 61% for Levels I to IV. The table below lists all four levels for every area, straight from the DOL OFLC wage file.
