Brigham and Women's Hospital
H-1B Labor Condition Application (LCA) Data
In 2023, Brigham and Women's Hospital filed 45 H-1B applications for Medical Scientists, Except Epidemiologists and related occupations with a median offered wage of $100,334.

These are DOL-certified wages committed to in Labor Condition Applications — not necessarily the number of visas approved by USCIS.
Filings by Occupation (2023)
