Large salaries for the CEO aren't really that surprising. For a non-profit like a hospital, they base CEO salary on comparables in the industry.
I think sutters CEO is in the top 3 or so highest paid non profit CEOs, and sutter may be the biggest / second biggest non profit health system in the country, so I don't know that there are many industry comparables
I'd love to see a breakout of corporate g&a vs provider level g&a at sutter vs a set of comparable systems. All that "non-profit" profit has to go somewhere
it is interesting that sutter's overall system-level profit is $370M. i think they have a few other very profitable hospitals as well. they must spend a lot on corporate sg&A and executive salaries (their CEO has a $7-10M salary IIRC)
