Healthcare CEOs are getting fewer stock options, thanks to new accounting rules, but that doesn't mean the top-paid executives are doing without. UnitedHealth's William McGuire led the pack with total compensation of $124.8 million in fiscal 2004. Even the second-highest paid hospital exec, Triad Hospitals' Denny Shelton, left, added $17.9 million to his personal bottom line in 2004.
