Editor’s note: WellCare Health Plans, Inc. was omitted from this table because it has delayed reporting full financial and operating data for 2007 in light of an ongoing investigation by federal and state agencies. HealthSpring, Inc. and Centene Corp. were omitted because the companies did not grant options to their top two highest-paid executives in 2007. 

*The table includes both the top-ranked executive and the second-highest-paid health plan executive for each company on the basis of salary.
