You don't perchance work for Mission Hospital in Asheville NC, do you?

You also have to think that the company may have raised the pay rate to adjust for inflation over the year you were working there. That happened a lot where I used to work- new hires started off at a higher rate of pay than old hires started off at, and it's just because HR decided that it's better to give new employees more money starting off than giving current employees a raise. Talk to your boss, ask about perhaps a raise- most places do yearly evals/raises anyway.
