Methodology

Named Executives: Individuals disclosed on IRS Form 990 Schedule J and Part VII as officers, directors, trustees, and key employees of each 501(c)(3) nonprofit health system. This view combines granular Part VII rosters (multiple named individuals per filing, imported via CSV or the "Enrich named executives" control above) with the single highest-paid field stored on systems that do not yet have a full roster.

Physician Benchmark: $239,200 — the U.S. Bureau of Labor Statistics median annual wage for Physicians and Surgeons (OEWS, May 2023), already on a 2,080-hour full-time basis.

Pay Ratio: Executive total compensation ÷ physician median salary, expressed as a multiple (×). "% Above Physician" shows how far the executive pay exceeds the benchmark.

Data Source: IRS Form 990 filings via the ProPublica Nonprofit Explorer API and user-uploaded Part VII rosters.
