Independent, external directors serve on the compensation committee. An independent compensation consulting firm annually provides a written report and reasonableness opinion. The consultant reviews the system's executive compensation philosophy and analyzes market competitiveness (in total and by each compensation and benefit element) for the executives using appropriate comparability data. Compensation committee actions are contemporaneously documented. The process satisfies the rebuttable presumption procedures. Compensation for officers not reviewed by the board compensation committee is set/approved annually by saint luke's health system executive management based on market compensation surveys and comparability data.”
