Obamacare chief in California will make $333,120 after two raises this year #ACA
Obamacare: Covered California's director gets $65,000 bonus plus two raises this year
C
alifornia's Obamacare exchange awarded its executive director a $65,000 bonus
Thursday four months after giving him a 24% raise.
Starting July 1, Peter Lee will have a base salary of $333,120 as head of Covered
California. The exchange's board granted him a 24% raise in February and it gave Lee
another 2.5% increase Thursday.
Covered California's board chairwoman, Diana Dooley, said Lee deserved the additional
compensation for his work building the state-run marketplace and his continued
commitment to serving consumers statewide.
"We are deeply appreciative of Peter's leadership and we are very happy to recognize
his work," Dooley said.
The exchange didn't announce the Feb. 1 raise at the time. A spokeswoman said it was
posted on the exchange website May 21 along with salary information for 14 other top
managers who all earn more
than $100,000 annually.
Lee's $65,000 bonus surpasses
the $53,000 bonus the
exchange board granted him
last year.
Covered California's four-member board also gave a
13% raise to Yolanda Richardson, the exchange's
chief deputy executive director. She will make
$265,668 starting July 1.
The exchange doesn't draw on the state's general funds. Covered California's primary
source of revenue is a $13.95 monthly fee tacked onto every individual policy sold.
Consumer advocates have credited Lee with securing lower-than-expected rates from
health insurers the last two years and reaching substantial enrollment of nearly 1.4
million people.
At Thursday's board meeting, Lee cited the exchange's successful outreach to Latinos,
its sound financial footing and standardized benefits that make it easier for consumers
to compare health plans.
"This is a labor of love for many of us ... to change healthcare in California and to serve
