“The governance committee develops the executive compensation policy and strategy to be followed in establishing the ceo's compensation and for the ceo to follow in establishing compensation for other key employees. The primary strategy is to utilize an outside firm to provide executive salary market data within the health care industry for comparability when setting executive compensation levels. The ceo then reports salary decisions for key employees utilizing this data to the governance committee. Annually the governance committee reports a summary of its actions and established compensation philosophy to the board.”
