Pricey health care executives drew six-figure salaries of up to $500,000 last year while patients lined the hallways of overcapacity hospitals.
Documents obtained by the Toronto Sun show the 1,460 staff at seven health care agencies, including Local Health Integration Networks (LHINs) and eHealth, drew a combined $187.9 million in salary.
Ontario Health Minister Christine Elliott announced last month that the seven agencies — LHINs, CCO, eHealth Ontario, the Ontario Health Quality Council (HQO), Trillium Gift of Life Network, HealthForceOntario Marketing and Recruitment and Health Shared Services — will be consolidated into one super health agency which she said would reduce duplication in infrastructure and administration.
