I guess i should clarify. I am referring to the corporate CEO,Gary Newson. According to the information on the Forbes website, he earned that much in 2008. However, he didn't return to the company until September 2008. The fiscal year is from jan-dec. So did he earn that much in four months?

I work for a HMA, and I'm very discouraged right now because my order to central supply for ink pens, colored flags for the charts, and other varios items that we need to do our day to day work was "killed." What's even worse is that some nights we only have 2 nurses and 1 cna to cover a medical floor, census 20. You know when a nurse leaves her shift and feels like she hasn't done a good job, she may think about working somewhere else, especially since the HMA hospital is not competitive with wages and she makes about $2.00 less/hr than the nurses at a hospital 5 miles down the road. But guess what, the CEO's for HMA total calculated compensation for 2008 was $1,461,363.00. That makes me feel so angry. Just think of the care the people of my community could recieve if the big dogs weren't becoming millionaires.
