A recent HFMA survey finds that chief financial officers of healthcare organizations today receive higher levels of compensation than ever before, though quite likely they are required to do more to earn it. The 1999 survey found average annual cash compensation to be $111,200--an 11 percent increase over the $99,900 respondents reported in a similar 1995 HFMA-sponsored poll. Increasing merger and acquisition activity since the 1995 study was conducted, however, has resulted in more CFOs assuming greater levels or responsibility in ever-larger organizations. The survey found factors influencing CFO compensation include the individual's experience, supervisory responsibilities, eligibility for bonus or profit sharing, education, gender, and CPA certification. The size of the CFO's organization and its geographic location also had an effect on compensation.
医疗财务管理协会（HFMA）最近的一项调查发现，如今医疗保健机构的首席财务官获得的薪酬水平比以往任何时候都要高，不过他们很可能需要付出更多努力才能挣到这些钱。1999年的调查发现，年度现金薪酬平均为111,200美元，比1995年医疗财务管理协会发起的类似调查中受访者报告的99,900美元增长了11%。然而，自1995年的研究开展以来，并购活动不断增加，这使得越来越多的首席财务官在规模越来越大的组织中承担着更大的职责。调查发现，影响首席财务官薪酬的因素包括个人经验、监管职责、获得奖金或利润分享的资格、教育程度、性别以及注册会计师认证。首席财务官所在机构的规模及其地理位置也会对薪酬产生影响。
