Health Care Chief Compliance Officers Salary Survey

Introduction

Introduction

About This Report The 2015 Health Care Chief Compliance Officers Salary Survey is another important service provided by the Health Care Compliance Association (HCCA) and the Society of Corporate Compliance and Ethics (SCCE). The information contained in this report represents complete and accurate compensation data on individuals working in the health care compliance profession. The report is designed to allow organizations and individuals to compare their salary to their peers. The salary data have been aggregated in the following groupings so organizations and individuals can compare their own data to the results of similar operations. These aggregations include: • • • • • • • • • • • •

All Respondents Percentage of Company’s Legal and Regulatory Risk Areas the Chief Compliance Officer (CCO) is Involved in Number of Employees in the compliance and Ethics Group Managed Annual Compliance Budget Managed Number of Employees in Portion of the Organization that CCO runs Compliance for Annual Revenues in Portion of the Organization that CCO Runs Compliance for Number of Countries in Which Compliance is Managed Number of Years Managing the Compliance Department Certifications Held Type of Organization Number of Compliance Program Elements the CCO is Involved in Geographic Region

Because the goal of this survey was to determine salaries for Chief Compliance Officers for an organization or division within it, and not for leaders of specialized areas of compliance, individuals who indicated they were responsible for less than 26% of an organization’s legal and regulatory risk were eliminated. These individuals accounted for 15.3% of all respondents. As an organization or individual compares their salary information to that of the profession, it is important to remember that the statistics published in this report should be regarded as “guidelines” rather than “absolute standards.” Since organizations will differ, depending upon their location, size, and other factors, any two organizations may offer their employees a reasonably attractive compensation package and yet be very different. For example, duration of employment and nature of prior experience will obviously influence the compensation offering for a particular individual. Thus, a deviation between any one organization’s figures and a number appearing on a table in this report is not necessarily good or bad; it is merely an indication that additional scrutiny may be warranted. A minimum of five responses was required to show data. This study was conducted for HCCA/SCCE by Industry Insights, Inc., an independent professional survey research firm located in Dublin, Ohio. The company specializes in conducting industry operating surveys, compensation and benefits studies, and member attitude surveys for trade and professional associations. The HCCA/SCCE is proud to present the enclosed insights into the salary levels in the compliance industry. We wish to thank the professionals who submitted data for the study. Your support was essential in making this study a success.


Introduction

Survey Methodology In June 2015, an email invitation was sent to approximately 45,000 individuals. In total, 1,646 completed online submissions were received by late July. Of the 1,646 responses, 679 were selected based on the following criteria: • They worked for a health care provider • They were responsible for at least 26% of an organization’s legal and regulatory risk This report is based solely on this group. Upon receipt, all submissions were assigned a confidential identification number. All data were checked both manually and by a specially designed computer editing procedure. Strict confidence of survey responses was maintained throughout the course of the project. Final results were tabulated by Industry Insights, Inc., and the report was completed in September 2015.

Definitions Average (mean): the arithmetic average obtained by adding the individual values for all responses to a particular question and dividing by the total number answering; a measure of central value that can be distorted by extreme high or low values. Median: a measure of central value that is not affected by extreme values; calculated by arranging all responses in numerical order and selecting the value that falls exactly in the middle, with half higher and half lower. 25th Percentile: when responses are ordered from lowest to highest, the lower quartile is the response 25% from the bottom. In other words, 75% of the responses are higher than this measure. 75th Percentile: when responses are ordered from the lowest to highest, the upper quartile is the response 25% from the top. In other words, 25% of the responses are higher than this measure.

Health Care Compliance Staff Salary Survey

Introduction

2015 Health Care Staff Salary Survey 35

Introduction

Introduction

About This Report The 2015 Health Care Staff Salary Survey is another important service provided by the Health Care Compliance Association (HCCA) and the Society of Corporate Compliance and Ethics (SCCE). The information contained in this report represents complete and accurate compensation data on individuals working in the health care compliance profession. The report is designed to allow organizations and individuals to compare their salary to their peers. The salary data have been aggregated in the following groupings so organizations and individuals can compare their own data to the results of similar operations. These aggregations include: • • • • • • • • • • •

Title/Level Compliance Responsibilities Number of People that Report up through to Individual Annual Compliance Budget for the Organization Number of Employees in Portion of the Organization that Person Works in Compliance for Annual Revenues in Portion of the Organization that Person Works in Compliance for Number of Countries the Individual Works in Number of Years Working in the Compliance Department Type of Organization Certifications Held Advanced Degrees

As an organization or individual compares their salary information to that of the profession, it is important to remember that the statistics published in this report should be regarded as “guidelines” rather than “absolute standards.” Since organizations will differ, depending upon their location, size, and other factors, any two organizations may offer their employees a reasonably attractive compensation package and yet be very different. For example, duration of employment and nature of prior experience will obviously influence the compensation offering for a particular individual. Thus, a deviation between any one individual’s figures and a number appearing on a table in this report is not necessarily good or bad; it is merely an indication that additional scrutiny may be warranted. A minimum of five responses was required to show data. This study was conducted for HCCA/SCCE by Industry Insights, Inc., an independent professional survey research firm located in Dublin, Ohio. The company specializes in conducting industry operating surveys, compensation and benefits studies, and member attitude surveys for trade and professional associations. The HCCA/SCCE is proud to present the enclosed insights into the salary levels in the compliance industry. We wish to thank the professionals who submitted data for the study. Your support was essential in making this study a success.


Introduction

Survey Methodology In June 2015, an email invitation was sent to approximately 45,000 individuals. In total, 1,489 completed online submissions were received by mid-August. Of the 1,489 responses, 658 worked for a healthcare provider organization. This report is based solely on this group. Upon receipt, all submissions were assigned a confidential identification number. All data were checked both manually and by a specially designed computer editing procedure. Strict confidence of survey responses was maintained throughout the course of the project. Final results were tabulated by Industry Insights, Inc., and the report was completed in October 2015.

Definitions Average (mean): the arithmetic average obtained by adding the individual values for all responses to a particular question and dividing by the total number answering; a measure of central value that can be distorted by extreme high or low values. Median: a measure of central value that is not affected by extreme values; calculated by arranging all responses in numerical order and selecting the value that falls exactly in the middle, with half higher and half lower. 25th Percentile: when responses are ordered from lowest to highest, the lower quartile is the response 25% from the bottom. In other words, 75% of the responses are higher than this measure. 75th Percentile: when responses are ordered from the lowest to highest, the upper quartile is the response 25% from the top. In other words, 25% of the responses are higher than this measure.
