Gender and compensation in health care management.
Salary comparisons of male and female ACHE members in 1989 showed that men earned nearly $16,000 more than women. Controlling for race and region, age and experience accounted for most of the explained variation. Women earned significantly more if they had more male mentors, a spouse willing to relocate for their career advancement, or an employer whose policies accommodated families such as flextime and if they themselves socialized informally with other health care executives.
